email notification

[Guest]

I do not get the pop-up when I receive a new email. Why not? This just
started a few days ago--it used to do it.

Windows version?

messages when you have Windows (not MSN) Messenger running, that
functionality was removed in the version of Windows Messenger you're running
now.

I wish it would do it. If I'm viewing another screen & have my email window open, I want it to tell me that I got a new email so I can go to it. When I turn on my computer, log in, it shows my security functions, & USED to say how many new messages I have. Now it doesn't show the messages, nor do I get the noise & the little pop-up telling me "new message from...subject..." You mean this function is no longer available?

That's a function of WinXP Welcome Screen. Compliments of Kelly:

If you're referring to new Hotmail messages, again, Windows Messenger no
longer includes this functionality. MSN Messenger does, if it's running.

No, I'm not referring to new Hotmail messages, just plain old IE
messages in my inbox. For example, I was doing something else, then
went to my inbox to see if I had any messages, & discovered you had
kindly replied. Used to get the little popup in the bottom right, when
I got a new message. Thanks!

Please don't begin your reply on a line beginning with a " > " as the
quoting gets mixed up. I've corrected it in my replies your last two posts
but it's getting tiresome.

What does your email address end with (e.g., @earthlink.net)? If you're
using a new address now, what did your old one end with?

While you may have been using an ISP-supplied or other third-party
application that gave you such pop-up notices, there's nothing in IE,
Windows or Windows Messenger that provides this functionality, lizklub.

Sorry, I've never done this before. My email address is
(e-mail address removed). It is connected to Yahoo.
