unread emails message

The welcome screen in Windows XP can show a message for each user giving the
number of unread messages in the user's Inbox. Does this only work for
Outlook Express, or is it configurable to work with Outlook 2003?

I think it only works with Outlook Express since that is integrated with
Windows (part of Internet Explorer.)

Thanks for this reply, Milly.
That's a pity then. So, by opting for Outlook (that's supposed to be much
better than OE, and you buy it rather than getting it 'free' with Windows),
you actually lose functionality in this area. Of course, MS don't tell you
that before you buy!

Thanks,
Paul

No, it's called research.
