When I was using Outlook 2007 on my work laptop, I set up notifications that would always alert me when selected emails came in. It didn't matter if I was at the computer, or locked it (when walking away), the alerts would always be there on the desktop.
Several months ago I received a new laptop, with Office 2010. Everything is fine, except that the alerts don't show when the computer is locked. So now when I unlock the computer, I have to check a couple folders to make sure I didn't miss anything. If I turn off Outlook, and turn it back on later, the marked messages will alert as they should, so something about lock mode is breaking this functionality for me. The OS, Windows 7, has remained the same.
It's not a huge deal, but annoying. Do you guys know what would cause this? I would venture a guess that something changed between the two versions, but I don't know what to look for.
Any help appreciated.
