How do I stop desktop alerts in a message rule?

[Cue8Chalk]

I have a message filter set to move messages that are caught by SpamAssasin
on my server and move them into my junk folder, however, I still receive
desktop alerts even after the message is moved. How do I prevent them from
triggering the alert on my desktop that I have new mail? I'm using Outlook
2007 in Windows Vista (x64) and my message rule is applied to an IMAP
account. The rule looks like this:

Apply this rule after the message arrives
through the .... account
and with ****SPAM**** in the subject
and on this machine only
move it to the Junk folder
and mark it as read

To stop the alert you need to turn it off at the default settings in Tools |
Options | email options | advanced options.
