I have desktop computer with windows 7 operating system. And I used outlook in my daily routine work I have noticed a thing that I am not getting the envelope icon on the notification area. I have done the settings regarding to this but then also I am not getting that envelope icon. If anyone knows how to get this icon to the notification area this please tell me. Any information will be appreciated, thanks in advance.

If you are having the post office protocol(POP)and Microsoft exchange server then only you receive desktop alert notifications. And if you are using the HTTP and internet mail access protocol(IMAP)account then they does not have the support for the desktop alert features. So first do check which type of account configuration you are using for the outlook.

This same thing is happened with me also, I always put the check mark for displaying the envelope icon on the notification area, then also it is unable to show the icon then one of the my friend suggested me to scan the computer for once. For checking for viruses. Then i scan my computer with the updated antivirus and believe me from that instant all the icons are start display on the notification area.
