Hi,

you should check that the database which the notes-client checks for new mails is set up properly.

Look into your current location document at the fields “Home/mail server” and “Mail file location” and “Mail file”.

This is usually the reason for not recieving any new mail notifications.

I gues you mean this “New mail has arrived” pop-up dialog:

If you dont get his dialog and your location ssettings are correct try to enable “Play a sound” - notification

additionaly to the “Show popup”-notification.

If the audio-notifiaction works fine and you still dont get the visible one then I would recommend a reinstall of the notes

client. If not even the audo-notification works then the problem should really be in the location document.

Hope this helps.

Bye

Subject: Edit your notes.ini file.

Stop your client. Edit notes.ini. Somewhere there will be 2 lines similar to below:

NewMailSeqNum=49438

NewMailSeqNum052562FB:0081888D=49438

Delete those 2 lines in and Start your client.

Do you use Roaming features? Switch to other ID’s and mail files? LAN connection or Dialup? I have only had the problem happen to me one time (3-4 months ago) and it did not come back.
