Up until about 2 months ago, everytime I got an email a little box would pop up in my system tray (associated with live messenger) and tell me I had received new email. Then out of the blue, it stopped, no more notifications. I didn't change anything at least I'm not aware of changing anything. Anyone have any ideas on this? I'm running XP with SP2. Thanks. -- Inside every older person is a younger person wondering. 'What the heck happened???' |

When you open WLM and click the hotmail tab on Windows live today, does it say mail is currently unavalible through this service? That may be the problem.

Greetings Ruth, The mail notifications are done server-side and simply sends your Messenger client a simple message when there's new mail. As such, when it breaks, there really isn't much you can do about it. -- Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Live Messenger MSN Messenger/Windows Messenger MessengerGeek Blog: http://www.messengergeek.com Messenger Resources: http://messenger.jonathankay.com (c) 2008 Jonathan Kay - If redistributing, you must include this signature or citation -- "Ruth" <luvallmycritters@yahoo.ca> wrote in message news:#nH5FLQ3IHA.4500@TK2MSFTNGP06.phx.gbl... > Up until about 2 months ago, everytime I got an email a little box would pop up in my > system tray (associated with live messenger) and tell me I had received new email. > Then out of the blue, it stopped, no more notifications. > I didn't change anything at least I'm not aware of changing anything. > Anyone have any ideas on this? > I'm running XP with SP2. > Thanks. > > -- > > > > > > > > Inside every older person is a younger person wondering.

In reply to Smithsonian, no it doesn't say that, it says my Inbox is empty because I just checked in thru Outlook Express and it is empty. I'm stumped!!!
