I've tried to turn it off with no luck. Clicking on it does nothing. Clicking on the down arrow next to My Stuff, and going through the choices there doesn't seem to affect it. How do I make it stop?

You can set your PMs to email you when you receive one, but the blinky envelope seems to be permanent. Choose "My Preferences" under the "My Stuff" menu to the left of the blinky envelope, and set "Do you want to be notified via email when you receive a private message?" to Yes.
