The “New Mail Desktop Alert” will only show when new mail has arrived in the Inbox. By default, it will not appear if a rule has been created to send certain mail to another folder (Tools | Options | E-mail Options | Advanced E-mail Options)
To change this you simply need to follow these steps:
Tools | Rules and Alerts… (press OK if you get a warning)
Click “New Rule”
Select "Check messages when they arrive" under "Start from a blank rule"
Press Next to go to the Conditions screen
Ensure nothing is checked and click “Next”
Click “Yes” when you receive the warning
Select "Display a Desktop Alert"
Click “Finish”
Tip
to change the settings of the alert click Tools | Options | Email Options | Advanced Email Options | Desktop Alert Settings. You can change the length of time the alert is displayed and the level of transparency
