When MSN messenger got taken away, I lost the sound I would get when an email arrived in my inbox. How do I get a sound now?

What program are you using now for email?

Mozilla Thunderbird lets you have a new mail notification sound - see https://support.mozillamessaging.com/kb/how-customize-new-mail-sound

hi Alice, firefox.

Firefox isn't a mail program. Are you using webmail?

Sorry, I don't know anything about hotmail and it's not one of the webmail programs that you can set up to open email links in Firefox (ref: Change the program used to open email links). It looks like you are asking about something unrelated to Mozilla.

I did a google search and found this, which seems to indicate that you must be using Windows Live Mail with hotmail to get a notification sound:

One thing more, I just thought of, you could look for a Firefox add-on. I found this one, for example, but it doesn't say that it gives you a new mail sound:

https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/xnotifier/

X-notifier (for Gmail,Hotmail,Yahoo,AOL ...)]

Sorry.

The best I can suggest is to search addons.mozilla.org for another hotmail addon. Here is a search result:

You could also ask in the Hotmail forum at http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windowslive/forum/hotmail

You can remove the add-on from the Firefox Add-ons Manager. See Disable or remove Add-ons
