no sound for new mail in inbox

[hairyt]

i have same problems about sound.
1. does that mean i have to leave outlook open for 5 minutes or longer to
hear a sound for new mail in the inbox?

2, do i have to create a rule to play a sound for items going into personal
folders?and how do you do that?

idea what the original question/answer entailed.
2. Post your version of Outlook.
3. Use rules and alerts.
