    I miss the characteristic of Outlook and how it showed you a little envelope
    and made a nice happy noise to alert you when "You've Got Mail." Anybody
    know how to make Windows Mail do the same thing so I won't keep checking my
    e-mail inbox but will KNOW when I actually have a new message? Thanks.

    Tools - Options - General - Send/Receive Messages
    [x] Play sound when new messages arrive.

    It uses the default windows sound assigned to new mail.

    My WinMail also shows a small envelope in the Notification Area of the
    Taskbar
