Mail is putting a notice of what mail I am receiving in the upper right hand corner of my screen. It is covering actions such as labeling an email with a color, or forwarding. I can't remove it. This is a new problem. How can I get rid of the box?

If you have no desire to see that type of system notifications from the Mail app, then you can exclude that app form the notification system. Change Notifications settings on Mac - Apple Support
It seems you have the Mail app on your Mac in full screen mode. Consider not doing that, instead experience the Mac with floating, movable, and resizable windows. Then you can position it when the notifications do not cover the Mail window(s).

Depending on your version system software, there may be some variance, but for macOS Ventura:
System Settings allows for configuration of settings for Notifications.
Note that one can choose for none vs. banners vs. alerts for each app. Banners are short duration, but alerts stay until dismissed (closed). A close (x) button appears in the top-left corner of the alert notification when the mouse pointer is hovering there.
The interesting thing is that the box up in the corner stays there no matter what I am doing; i.e., it isn't there just when I am in mail. Even when I have closed my computer and reopened it the next day it is still there.
I just looked at Mail services and saw one called "Make new sticky note." I had not idea what that was, but since I never use it, I unchecked it and the box is gone.
It worked! Your suggestion was perfect. Thank you.
You’re welcome. :)
