I posted a similar question a while back but no-one seemed to know. I have
almost finished wrting an addon that will show an icon in the system tray
when any mail arrives, whether it is moved by a rule or not. In addition to
this, the icon will tell you how many un-read e-mails you have. Would you be
interested in testing it for me?

TIA


Me too! Me too! Hey, how are you with Windows Mobile today plugins
Pocket Outlook exhibits the same un-functionality.

I'd be happy if I could get a new item alert to pop up and hear the alert
sound when a new e-mail is received in my inbox. My service is with MSN.com
and I'm using Outlook Connector, version 1.8.3501.0. I'm wondering if
Connector is the problem?

You need to create a rule to display a desktop notification/alert when
messages arrive into the non-default folders. It should be fairly intuitive
using the blank rule wizard. Its been a few years since I've set this up (it
was like this in Office 2003).

I've searched the groups and found people experiencing problems with
the new mail notification in Outlook 2007. The main problem is that
the mail icon in the system tray will only appear when new mail arrives
in the DEFAULT store inbox and stays there. If a rule moves the email
to a different folder, no mail icon will show up, nor will it show up
if email is delivered to an INBOX, but one that is not the default
store (i.e. when using an exchange account and a POP account).

So....I'm using the final Enterprise version, and the problem still
exists. Rules can be created to show the desktop alert notification
and also to play a sound, but if you aren't sitting in front of your
computer that doesn't help much.

Has anyone found a way to get the new mail icon to show up in the
system tray when ANY new mail arrives?

Thanks....
