How do I set an alarm for incoming mail?

How do I set up "You Have Mail" alert or alarm in Yahoo?

  • How do I set up an alarm or alert regarding "You have incoming mail" etc similar to compuserve a few years ago. Thank You

  • Answer:

    Install the toolbar for IE and Firefox: http://toolbar.yahoo.com/ or http://uk.toolbar.yahoo.com/ - no matter where you are on the web, the minute you receive a message, the mail button will alert you. http://ymailuk.com/blog1/2007/11/14/yahoo-mail-alert/ #2: If you have the messenger installed open it. Underneath the Yahoo logo (top left) click "messenger" -> preferences -> alerts and sounds. Go to the choice box (on the right side), click "enable" -> click "I receive a message in my Yahoo Mail" -> choose the sound you want to hear (or click the box "display box dialogue"). After you're done click "okay". #3: Mail Alert add-on for Firefox browsers with sound notification: http://ymnotifier.mozdev.org/

It is AOL who has the man's voice announcing "You've Got Mail." Not Compuserve. And Yahoo does not have that feature.
