RE: [PCTECH] Configure Outlook XP to *NOT* use sound notification whena filte r is triggered?

["Jones, John (US)" <John.Jones@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I haven't tried this but it should work:

1. Disable the default sound. (Tools - Options - Email Options -
Advanced Email Options - uncheck "Play a sound")

2. Create a rule:  Apply this rule after the message arrives through the
(your mail account) account and on this machine only play (some sound
file)

3. Modify your Spam rule to not run any more rules after it finishes.

4. Move your Spam rule to the top so it executes first.

Anyone know if it's possible to configure Outlook XP to not use sound
notification when certain filters are triggered?

We use SpamAssassin for our corporate anti-spam system and it flags
messages with *** SPAM *** in the subject line ... I, of course, have a
rule setup in outlook to move spam messages to a separate folder.
Unfortunately, whenever I get spam, I also get the normal new mail
notification sound.  I'd really like to get rid of that.

Thanks!
