The solution to my problem was to create the file:

~/.thunderbird/ghzps3qc.default/user.js  [The file name will vary as a 
function of the Thunderbird version installed.]

#
#       /root/.thunderbird/ghzps3qc.default/user.js
# How to handle the Advance to next unread message in <x> folder
# prompt.
#
# Settings:
#     0 - Always go to the next folder without prompting
#     1 - Ask before going (default behavior)
#     2 - Don't prompt and don't go to the next folder with unread
#         messages
user_pref("mailnews.nav_crosses_folders", 2);

And I am no longer annoyed by that notice.

Thank you.
