mobile email notification

[Guest]

Am running Outlook 2003 on Windows XP Pro. I am receiving sms text messages
on my Nextel mobile telephone each time an incoming e-mail is received. How
do I turn the mobile e-mail notifications off?

Any help would be appreciated.

do you have a rule enabled to forward it to your phone? what about an addin
sending notifications to the phone?

Or is it possible that you have an option with your ISP to notify you
when a message is received. (I have this option enabled with my ISP).

Hi Diane,

Thank you for your response. In Outlook 2003 under Tools, Options,
Preferences, E-mail Options, Advanced E-mail Opyions, Desktop Alert Settings,
I found where to disable desktop Alerts however there seems to be no place in
Outlook 2003 to enable or disable aletts to a mobile telephone? I had one
rule for one sender to send a sound when an e-mail from that sender was
received. It did not work as I have M/S powerpoint installed on the same PC
so I deleted that rule and now have no rules enabled. I also checked to see
if I had an add-in loaded but found none.

My ISP is MSN. It runs thru bellsouth.net as I am using their ASDL Service.
The mobile sms messages are sent to my Nextel mobile telephone even when
Outlook 2003 is closed? I have a wireless DL-624 Router in place. Guess I am
confused. How can Outlook 2003 send a mobile e-mail notification even when
the application is closed?

Pat,

Thanks for your e-mail and time. Same for Pat, the other person who responded.

Apparently over this last week-end (when all the e-mail notifications
started showing-up on my Nextel cell telephone) a software update or a change
authored by someone else took place to cause the e-mail notifications.

I found that MSN Mobile had an account in my name and my Nextel tele # had
been entered to receive e-mail notifications from Hotmail. I deleted my tele
number and the notifications ceased!

Thanks again,

Stan
