You could create a rule that notifies you with a specific message when you receive mail from specific person(s). &nbsp;This way you could disable the generic popup and only receive notification when you really want it. &nbsp;(Mail icon in systray will always show up regardless.)

Thank you, Neo_mvps that might work for some of the situations. &nbsp;Will that work to determine the difference between someone sending me a calendar change and the same person sending an email who has a rule set to pop up if they send an email? I can't see a rule for items other than mail. Also, how would I get notification of external mail if the generic option is turned off?<br />
<br />
Thanks for your help - I will continue playing with the rules.

I'll give the macro a try. &nbsp;Sounds like that would work.<br />

Does Outlook 2000 allow you to select the option for notification &quot;when new mail arrives&quot; without having the same notification pop up when net changes takes place such as someone adding a new calendar item on the network. &nbsp;Outlook does not appear to differentiate between the two types of mail/items.
