Microsoft Outlook 2003 e-mail notification

I was wondering if there is a way to get a pop-up notification of new e-mail message in a shared folder. I receive the notification for the Inbox.

Thanks
Tom

To restore the Envelope icon in the notification area follow these steps:

1. Start Outlook.
2. Click the Tools menu, click Options.
3. On the Preferences Tab, click E-mail Options.
4. Click Advanced E-mail Options.
5. Click to select the Show an envelope icon in the notification area check box.

Note In Microsoft Outlook 2002, the check box is named Show an envelope icon in the system tray.
