Outlook XP - new mail sound until read?

[Freddy Tria]

How do I get Outlook XP to play a sound for notification when new mail
arrives and repeat playing the sound until
it has been read?Thanks for ideas!

You can't. But you can configure a longer wav-sound.
Control Panel-> Sounds and Audio Devices-> tab Sounds-> New Mail
Notification.

You can even rip a CD to a very big wave-file so it will play the CD. I'm
not sure whether you are able to stop playing it so make it a CD you really
really like ;-)

I'm don't understand your goal. Do you mean this to be some sort of an alert
function, like sleep mode. As a periodic sound reminder that you have
unread email?

BTW. The CD or any music file will play to completion unless you manually
stop it.
