I am running IE6. This is a new computer from Dell. My old Gateway was
running XP Home Edition, but I still had the same versions of Outlook Express
and IE. On the OE help menu, it says to select the "preferences" tab from
tools--options, and then to select something like "display icon on toolbar
when receiving new mail." Well, I don't have a "preferences tab"! No
preferences reference anything about new mail aside from the sound.

And did New Mail Icon go away after you installed IE7?

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!!
