Board index » Windows Vista » Trouble Windows Live Mail

Windows Vista6
I'm running Vista Home Basic along with "Live Mail".



Lately I'm having difficulty with icons in the notification tray.



Icon for new mail not being shown.

Icon for new mail not being shown but new mail is there.

No icon at all shown.



Anyone here had these symptoms and overcome them?

Are you absolutely sure you are using Windows LIVE mail, which you would

have had to install, and not Windows Mail, that comes as part of Vista?

Yes I'm using Windows Live Mail. From what I read, I have the impression

that this is the mail system in Microsofts future. I figured why not start

using it now, rather than have to chnge a litle later when they drop Windows

Mail.

Are you set to hide inactive icons? Rightclick the notification

Yes I'm set to hide icons but mail generally shows because its used often.

Are you suggestion because I have this set on, the new mail icon will act

erratically?

You will probably get more answers if you post to the correct

newsgroup, which is "microsoft.public.windows.live.mail.desktop.
