If you have outlook express go to "format"..."background" and select "sound"...it will give you several wavs to choose from, or you can browse and select one of your own.\n\nGood luck.

open up Yahoo Instant Messenger under the same yahoo user ID and you will be asked if you want an alert for incoming emails. (You'll have to have YIM running for this to work all the time)

it's not a question of Forcing... Yahoo mail simply doesn't have that feature.  Suggest it who knows they may put that in the next patch for yahoo.  If ya want something ya gotta ask or how will all the computer geeks at yahoo gonna know?\n\nThe only program i know of that does have the audio alerts is microsoft out look which comes with most computers you just have to set it up... and you can also set up your Outlook to check your yahoo mail :D

I don't know if outlook does that or not, but yahoo or hotmail, will both give an alert to incoming mail, as long as you have their messeger on.
