Yahoo messenger not displaying the email notification on my system tray?

How do I get this feature back?

Yahoo messenger not displaying the email notification on my system tray?
This issue is now resolved. I spoke with the Yahoo! customer care team a short time ago. There was a glitch in the notification system causing mail alerts/notifications through My Yahoo!, Yahoo! Toolbar, and Yahoo! Messenger to not function properly. This glitch sent alerts of new emails to people that did not have emails. It also did not notify/alert people when they did have email. The problem started yesterday morning (July 19th, 2006) and went through until just a few moments ago. However, as stated, it is fixed now.
Reply:It seems Yahoo has a major glitch in its new versions released the other week. Many people are no longer getting email notification, even though their preference settings are still correct.





I tried everything -- uninstalling, installing a different version, doing a system restore on Window XP... all to no avail. It's obviously a Yahoo problem.





I too need that email notification alert and it's been very difficult without it.

Reply:Also stopped working for me and it used to. Tried the above but box was checked. I used to hear a sound and see a little envelope.
Reply:I just now am having this problem too...I unchecked and rechecked everything and even uninstalled and re-installed the program and it still is not working...
