It would help if you included your version of Outlook since instructions for
newer versions differ a bit from older versions. -- Kathleen Orland "yt8589" wrote in message ... i would like for outlook to sound a tone when a new email comes in but cant find a setting for that, but i bet its there somewhere. |

For some of them (i.e., those for which you defined rules), you don't see a "play sound" clause to add to those rules? If you want a global sound then go configure your Windows sounds using the Sounds applet in Control Panel and select a file for the "New e-mail notification" event; however, the "Play a sound" option must also be enabled in Outlook (the Sound event simply defines what sound to use, not if it gets used). As to where the "Play a sound" option is found depends on the version of Outlook but which you neglected to mention. For OL2003: Tools - Options - Preferences tab - E-mail Options - Advanced E-mail Options. |
