how to recieve notification of emails sent to shared mailbox?
using outlook 2007 a User would like a notification each time a message is received by a shared mailbox that user has opened in his outlook.
He would like the little quick preview message you see typically when you get a new email…down in the corner that fades away after a second or two.
I think it can be done with a rule. But not having luck so far.

you could set up journaling on that mailbox, that would give you full copies of the emails sent to that folder. That could be an option if you can't do it the other way.

To add this folder as a favourite folder:
While in Mail view, at the top left of the screen, you should see a small set of the main folders (i.e. Inbox / Sent Items)
To add the other inbox to this list, simply click on the inbox within the other mailbox and drag it onto the favourites folder. This will have the effect of making the number of unread items in the second mailbox clearly visible without having to expand it and view the inbox.
Hopefully this helps!
