message box

[one2001boy]

Hello,

I want my desktop to pop up a message box to alert me if there is an
email coming from a special email address. The outlook rules can only
route the email to a special folder. is there a way to call external
binary file if I detected a email from a special email address in outlook?

Many thanks.

Then take a closer look at the actions available for Outlook rules, including the two different types of alerts.
