How do I set up "You've Got Mail" alert or alarm in Yahoo? How do I set an alarm or alert regarding "You have incoming mail, etc. similar to CompuServe a few years ago.
Thank you
Install the Toolbar for IE and Firefox:
http://toolbar.yahoo.com/ or http://uk.toolbar.yahoo.com/ - no matter where you are on the web, the minute you receive a message, the mail button will warn you.

# 2: If you installed the messenger to open it. Under the Yahoo logo (top left), click on "Messenger" -> Preferences - Alerts> and sounds. Go to the selection box (right side), click "Enable" -> click "I get a message in my Yahoo Mail" -> select the sound you want to hear (or click the box "box display dialog "). After you have finished click" ok ".
# 3: Mail Alert add-on for Firefox with sound notification: http://ymnotifier.mozdev.org/
AOL is that the man's voice announcing "You've Got Mail. Not Compuserve. And Yahoo does not have this feature.
