Apple Mail not working right???

Ok, so I installed Office:Mac 2004, now all of a sudden, my Apple Mail
(the Apple provided email application) dock icon no longer shows me
how many messages I have waiting! VERY irritating!!

This sequence of events started last night when I first installed
Office, and then lo and behold when I opened Word for the first time,
all of these fonts got installed. I'm an Extensis Suitcase kind of
guy. I don't really like all those fonts in my system folder. I've
even disabled all the other "stock" fonts except for Geneva and Lucida
Grande. I also had Arial enabled since that's what the dock icon uses.
The dock icon stopped working last night. I decided to do a restore
and reinstall my apps and files.

This morning/today, I reinstalled all my software and backed up files.
When I installed Office this time, I moved the font and font library
files into an offsite folder so that I could use Suitcase to determine
just when those fonts would be available. I did this before opening
Word, Excel, and PowerPoint for the first time.

Anyone have any ideas why Office is interferring with this
functionality??????
