Just wondering if there is a setting or an addin that would allow me to setup "new mail desktop alerts" for folders besides the inbox..

my problem is that I have rules filtering my new mail to other folders besides the inbox so when I get new email in these folders the desktop alert never shows up because the inbox is bypassed...

any help is greatly appreciated!
 
I have the same problem, but it's not really much of a problem to me. [wink]

But, if you want those reminders, you can set them up in rules. Otherwise, there's no option to fix that (at least in Outlook 2003).

There've been a few other threads about this subject already.

thanks for the help!

sorry I couldnt find anything when I did a quick search
 
No problem. Did you see what I was talking about? Did you get your "problem" fixed?
