Can you close windows mail and still get email notifications
Posted by admin on Apr 19th, 2007
I remember on my old system *XP* seems like you could close out of outlook and still get a new email notification on the toolbar, i like to keep my email open, just dont like having a window open for it. Im running Vista currently.

Only thing is, with Vista comes Windows Mail, which is the successor to Outlook *Express*, both of which never had or have this functionality.There are tools available that can minimize any applications of your choice to the system tray, take your pick from a Google search, f.i.: google.com/search?q=minimize+to+tray&sourceid=ie7&rls=com.microsoft:enUS&ie=utf8&oe=utf8Alternatively, if you only want to get a notification about new messages arriving, you could use a simple POP3 check utility, requiring usually much less system ressources than Windows Mail.

"JayMc" No and it didn't work in Outlook or Outlook Express in XP without it being a thrid party program installed and checking mail.If you had a Hotmail account and had Messenger running, it would notify you.
