In the Configure --> Settings screen you can find Advanced settings checkbox in the bottom left corner. With it checked you can access the Messages settings. From there you can disable popup and sound notifications about events you don't care about.  By default Mumble makes a loud PING and gives you a notification popup for almost any event on the server - this gets annoying pretty fast.

== Channel Properties for the Public and Combat Lounges ==


Both the Public Lounge and the Combat Lounge are linked on the Mumble server so that both channels can both listen to and speak to each other without having to move yourself between the channels, but there is a restriction on who can be in each channel. Anyone that has a forum account with EVE University's website can access the Mumble server, and the Public Lounge is the equivalent of the public E-UNI chat channel (specifically E-UNI, not Chat.E-UNI) as it is open to anybody regardless of membership. Essentially, Mumble users that are not corporation members with EVE University are restricted from entering the Combat Lounge. This is very important regarding communication that needs to follow the Operational Security rules and guidelines, as discussed here: [[Operational Security]].

*If you're in the Combat Lounge channel you can use your command channel shortcut to speak to only those in the current channel about potential fleet activity. It's best to do this while avoiding anyone else talking over Mumble, as Public Lounge will not be able to hear your message and may speak over you. So please try to keep the message brief and clear so it has the best chance of getting across effectively to those in the Combat Lounge.
