New Mail desktop alert

Guest

I have two E mail accounts - hotmail and tiscali. I have set up new mail
destop alert but this only works in respect of my tiscali account (POP) but
not for hotmail. The former comes into the "general" inbox whereas Hotmail
comes into.
its own Hotmail in box - is this the reason for the difference in the two
accounts? Can I configure Outlook so that the Alert works with Hotmail as
well. I use Outlook Live .
Any help would be appreciated.

The alerts only work with the default message store and pop accounts.
