Well, actually my Dock IS hidden, but the icon pops out. I do have new mail sound turned on, but if I go into Classic, sometimes my sounds vanish until I completely log out of X and log back in again. Either way, the icon bounces on errors even if I have "Animate Icon" turned off.
I don't want to ignore errors, but I don't always want to deal with them immediately. If I'm doing something else, and the icon pops out WITHOUT the little message indicator, I know it's an error, not a message, but I still have to stop what I'm doing, go to Entourage, and then go back to what I'm doing to get the bounce to quit. If it's a message, then I WANT to go the Entourage; the bounce is handy for that circumstance. I suppose if it really is 99.9% of users who differ from me, then I'm outa luck, and so be it. But maybe I'm not so unusual. Seemed like it couldn't hurt to mention it. -Bill > From: Paul Berkowitz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Reply-To: "Entourage:mac Talk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Date: Wed, 02 Jan 2002 07:24:45 -0800 > To: Entourage Mac Talk <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: Re: Error notification in Erage X > > > Really, now!
