I have an audible notification set up through OE but does anyone know of a
way I can set up an on screen "you have mail" type of notification?

Thanks

OE can't do this. Try a search.

I have read all of the comments from many persons, regarding problems
associated with notification of new e-mail....I think I have a unique
situation, and am wondering if anyone might have an idea as to a solution.
My Dell laptop is only a few months old, and my e-mail is delivered via
Outlook Express 6. When new mail arrives, I get a "balloon pop" sound,
indicating new mail has come in. However, I am ABSOLUTELY unable to change
that sound, to something more audible/louder (such as a "tada," or a
"Microsoft Notify" sound). Trust me: I have repeatedly gone into my Control
Panel, gone to Sounds, and attempted to change the balloon sound. Nothing
works! I have no clue how to get a different (better) sound -- the balloon
pop is fairly quiet, and I often miss hearing the arrival of new mail. Does
anybody have a clue how to fix this??? Thanks in advance.

Double check:
- Tools, Options, General, Play Sound
- Control Panel, Sounds, Windows, New Mail Notification

Note that in Control Panel there are several similar events. Messenger
has a New Mail and New Message events. You need to make sure you got
the right event.
