Tools | Options | General | Play sound when new message arrives.


There's no such thing as "Outlook Express Windows Mail."

You're however there are Outlook Express (in win XP,
and Window Mail (in Vista). My apology for that
missing coma...-))

BTW - you're talking about;
"Tools | Options | General | Play sound when new message arrives."
WHERE ?
My Win Live Mail has working / "Playing sound when new message arrives"
The problem I have is: "How to add a sound (Happy Birthday, for example)
to a birthday wishes ?

It might as well had been called that. ;-)

Just to avoid misunderstanding;

You're right, however there are 1) Outlook Express (in win XP,
and 2) Window Mail (in Vista). My apology for that
missing coma in my first posting ...-))

My Win Live Mail (in Win 7)works fine and has
working / "Playing sound when new message arrives"

The problem I have is:
"How to add a sound (Happy Birthday, for example)
to a birthday wishes when I'm sending them,
using Windows Live Mail , (in Windows 7) ?

My understanding is that you have to save the message as a file. Then
edit it with a text editor and add the HTML code for playing the sound.
Then open it in WLM and email it out.

So, WLMail hasn't got that what the Windows Mail has and the Outlook
Express.
Frankly, your explanation is a bit larger than my missing coma was...-
I'd noticed that had you put it in first place.

The problem was and still is that I cannot add sound to my email
using Windows Live Mail. The rest (fiddling with the text editor,
is irrelevant in this case.
Thanks for you kind "contribution and help" to this NG.

Good thing. I hate emails with sound. I hope you never figure out how
to do it.

ROTFL Mr. Alias, the world dictator. lol

 

[BillW50]

"Dictator"? Please explain how my hopes are dictating what others
should do. This should be good.

Since you hate emails with sound, you wish nobody else can use them
either. lol

 

[BillW50]

You just proved my point and didn't even realize it. Dictators don't
wish, they, erm, dictate. For help with the meaning of these words,
visit http://www.dictionary.com/.

Ahh... but Alias *would* be a world dictator if he had the power to do
so. So what is the difference? You're just a dictator without any
influence. ;-)

 

[BillW50]

This is a lie and a false conclusion on your part.

No it is true! You are a world dictator wannabe.

 

[BillW50]

No, it's a lie and you, sir, are a liar. You are making up a personal
attack because you can't do anything else like install Avast properly.

No sir! You don't tell other people what you wish they would do when it
doesn't even concern you! And I know how to install Avast properly. And
you can only do so through custom install. That is the big secret. ;-)

Hi Leala

I second that, except the bozo part, I think it's easier to
communicate when we use a nice language.
We could of course use a filter, but when they are not fighting
they do actually seem to know some good stuff.;-)

You gave us almost no details to work with, so I am making any
assumptions I feel like, In this case, with WLM 2009, it's in the menu
option I indicated.

The problem I have is:
"How to add a sound (Happy Birthday, for example)
to a birthday wishes when I'm sending them,
using Windows Live Mail , (in Windows 7) ?

Just use the little "Attach" button or the "Insert" meny option to
attach a sound file to the email.

Both of those clowns have proved themselves to be a waste of time. They
deserve each other.

McCorkindale wants to the receiver to hear the background sound to play
when opening the email. Not send it as an attachment. And here is how
this is done.
