I can't get that envelope to show in tray when new messages have arrived.
Display alerts works fine, but not the envelope.
Is this a known bug?

It will only display for messages delivered in your Inbox folder. It won't
display for messages you move by using a rule. You can however specify in
your rule to alo display the envelope or create a generic rule (without any
conditions) to display an envelope when a message is received.

Ok, thanks! This is new behavior, right? As I remember in Outlook 2003 the
envelope was always displayed for new mails, regardless of folder.

Yes, for Outlook use with a pst-file and no for Outlook use with an Exchange
mailbox ;-)

When you create a generic rule you might also want to consider adding;
-sound
-New Mail Desktop Alert
-New Item Alert Window

I bet you'll never miss having a new mail now :-D

THis might sound like a stupid question, but where in the rules can I select
to display the envelope icon as you sugested? I found all the other items,
but just that one I cannot seem to find...

Hi all. I'm in the same situation (Outlook 2007 b2) and i need the envelope
for all the messages i receive (ALL moved in folders by rules, nothing in
Inbox) but i can't find how to create a general rule for it, i mean in the
rules options there is no 'envelope' voice.
Thanks for your help.
Regards,
Luca

Hi,
I am in the same situation too. And that solution with "New Item Alert
Window" instead of ENVELOPE in tray is VERY, VERY, VERY STUPID!!!!!

I HOPE that ms will correct this in the next "built" of Office 2007..... Or
there should be an option "Show an envelope in the notification area" in the
RULES options....

Tools, Options, E-mail Options, Advanced Email Options, Show an envelope
icon in the notification area is the option to switch on or off the
envelope.
It will only display the envelope notification though for your default
store Inbox.

Surely Patric, but we talk here about situation when you move all your emails
from exchange inbox to PST folders by rule when they arrive... This worked in
2003 but 2007 does not show envelope.. understand?

Setting you describe works just for default inbox as you wrote.

Hi Martin,

Yes I perfectly understand and I honestly don't know what you could do
to change this behavior. It seems that Outlook 2007 moves the messages
before the notification can be triggered. I don't have Exchange or use
rules extensively. I hope someone who does knows anything about this
issue.
