Outlook 2007 New Mail icon (envelope) hit and miss in Windows 7

D

A user has the Mail icon displayed in Windows 7 on the taskbar by choosing
customize notification icons, and then pinning Outlook to the notifications.
When new mail comes in, the Outlook icon changes to an envelope to signify
that there is new mail.
This is still only working sometimes. The user had Outlook minimized and
when he went to Outlook to send an email, he noticed that there were 6 new
emails waiting, yet he still had no envelope icon on the task bar.
Anyone else noticed this with Windows 7 and Outlook 2007?

He pinned the wrong icon. There is an Outlook icon and also an envelope
icon. It's not that the Outlook icon changes into an envelope icon.
