      i can not minimize the opera mail to the notification area as soon as i clicked the minimize button.
      also i am not notified with sound when i receive a new email. However, the notify check box is checked.
      thanks in advance.

        You can't do it via the minimize button. You need to use ctrl + alt + shift + h.

        also i am not notified with sound when i receive a new email. However, the notify check box is checked.
        thanks in advance.

        Sometimes it just doesn't work. But:

        Close down Opera and edit accounts.ini in the mail folder. Under the section for the account in question, make sure Sound Enabled=1 is set. Also, make sure Sound File=C:\Windows\Media\notify.wav is set for example.

        Then, while Opera is still closed, under the "User Prefs" section in opearprefs.ini (see "help -> about Opera" for the location), make sure Show Notification For New Messages= is set to 1 or make sure Show Notification for New Messages= is missing entirely.

        The sound file needs to be a wav file. Test with notify.wav first to see if you can get that working. Might be something with the file you're using.
