Can anyone tell me how to have my outlook notify me when I receive emails?


Outlook Express puts an icon in the Notification area at the right end of
the taskbar. I don't know what Outlook does, but in either case the program
does have to be running.

Outlook and Outlook Express are very different programs. You'll get more
