Hi Joyce
You have the option of installing Gmail Notify which you can download from
Google on your computer. Whenever a mail gets into your inbox, a sound on
your machine is produced. You can also use Google Talk for the same result
if you prefer it to Gmail Notify.
Alternatively, you can just set up your pop3 email client to retrieve mail
for you from Google severs. This way, whenever a mail is retrieved, a sound
will beep on your computer. Email clients you can use are Microsoft Outlook
or Outlook Express.
However, you must first configure your Gmail account using its web interface
to allow forwarding and Pop handling.
I hope this is simple. Sorry for any unintentional complexity in this
explanation: feel free to seek clarification either on or off list.
Take care,
Ishe
