Hi all,

Any way to configure Desktop Alert so that it displays an alert when mail is
received and routed (via rules wizard) to another folder?

I have many sub-folders in my inbox for specific people, and rules to have
those messages moved upon receipt to the appropriate folder. But Dekstop
Alert does not show when these people send me email - only when email is
received and delivered to the Inbox.

Thanks,

JS

It can be set as an Action in the rule

Most of my mail gets sent off to different folders, and the rule that does
the moving is the rule that contains the prompt to tell me the message has
arrived.
