Did you see the reply to the original post?

To get automatic new mail notification, Outlook Express must be running.
It can be minimized. You also need to set Tools, Options, General,
Check for new messages every xx minutes (this should be set to at least
10-15 minutes to avoid an excessive burden on the mail server). Unlike
Netscape, Microsoft will download the messages before notifying you.
When the new mail is downloaded, you get an envelope icon in the system
tray, and if desired a wave sound file played (Tools, Options, General,
Play Sound; and Control Panel, Sounds, New Mail Notification). If the
sound doesn't seem to play, you may need to select a different sound,
then change it back to the desired one.

The notification icon for new messages in the status bar and "Play sound
when new messages arrive" features of Outlook Express may not work
successfully with Trend Micro Anti-Spam installed.

--------------------------

In particular, if you are using Trend Micro Anti-Spam, you need to talk to
them regarding fixing their program.

Hello,

I am using Outlook Express on my new Dell computer, running Windows XP.
Before, I always got a small envelope icon on the bottom toolbar, near
the
clock, whenever a new e-mail was received and unread. Now I cannot get
that
icon. I get no notification of new mail. The Earthlink and Dell people
tell
me that it should be there. All of my preferences on Outlook Express are
correct I think. Can someone please help me? Thanks a lot!!

Marc
