The icon no longer appears in the notification area.
Right-click the Taskbar. If "Lock the Taskbar" is checked, uncheck it and
right-click again. Choose Properties, then Customize. Locate the
"Microsoft Office Outlook" entry and, in the Behavior column, click what you
see. (I bet is shows "Hide when inactive", but it may show "Always hide".)
Change it to "Always show". Click OK, then OK. If you had to uncheck "Lock
the TaskBar" in step one, right-click the Taskbar and recheck "Lock the
Taskbar". Now, right-click the Outlook icon and choose "Hide when
Minimized".
