New Mail Envelope Has Disappeared From Notification Area

M

MB

I made the mistake of right clicking and hiding the new mail envelope in the
notification area, now I can't get it back. I tried the recommendations from
a previous thread on this (i.e. right click on start, go to properties, go to
taskbar, customize, and make sure that the "new message" is set to "always
show", doesn't fix it. A couple of notes on that, I can't get there without
turning on the "hide inactive icons", then customize. Moreover, I notice
ithat all of the new mail notification related icons have the wrong pictures
next to them. What is going on and how do I get my new mail notification
envelope back in the notification area when new mail arrives?

YOU ARE THE MAN! I am sure that this was beyond remedial for you and a
complete waste of time, but I really appreciate it, particularly the quick
turnaround.

You-are-the-man, have a nice weekend.
