Hotmail won't show envelope in system tray when new mail arrives

[John]

I'm using Outlook 2002 and I have two email accounts
configured. One of the accounts delivers mail to the
local Outlook inbox, while the other account is Hotmail,
which has it's own seperate inbox.

How do I get the new mail icon to display in the system
tray when new mail is delivered to my Hotmail account? It
already does this for the other email account I have set
up, but the icon doesn't appear when new mail reaches my
Hotmail account.

I have the new mail icon option checked under Tools ->
Options -> Email Options -> Advanced Email Options. Any
help would be appreciated.

Unfortunately you can't. Hotmail uses its own store and Outlook won't put
the envelope on the tray for Hotmail messages.
