desktop e-mail notice

How do I setup my desktop to show a pop up when I have e-
mail on outlook express?

Bruce ... Outlook Express has to be running before receiving notification
.... an icon will automatically appear in the notification tray. You select
the interval for checking for new mail in OE's Tools, Options, General tab
and select the time interval for checking mail in 'Check for new messages
every xx minutes'.

There are third party email notifiers out there that will check your email
at designated intervals and notify you when new mail has arrived. The one I
use is Magic Mail Monitor, free and available at http://www.geeba.org/magic/
It works independantly of OE and provides an unobtrusive blinking icon in
the notification tray (or a desktop popup, if you wish) and can also provide
audio notification using a .wav file (eg 'You've got Mail') ... but there
are many others.
