Animated Icon

[nacamera]

It's my understanding that when I get a new email message the Entourage
icon will bounce on my dock. This has never worked for me. I am running
OS 10.4.3 on a 20" iMac G5 with the latest version of Entourage. I have
the "animate icon" tab clicked in preferences. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks for the help.

What you're doing wrong is checking your mail manually, in Entourage. So
you don't need notifying, and therefore nothing is happening. To need
notifying, you'd have to be working in some other program, with
Entourage doing a background check by means of a timed/repeated
schedule. m.
