E-mail notification alert not appearing

Hello,
I am running Thunderbird 24.4.0 on Windows 7. I am using no add-ons and I am only using a Gmail account with Thunderbird right now for testing.
I do not receive any new e-mail notifications. I did receive them once or twice before, but it is very random and rare when I do receive a new e-mail alert.
However when I maximize Thunderbird, it displays the new e-mail. So Thunderbird is indeed actually receiving the e-mail, it is just failing to notify me.
I have ensured notifications are enabled in the Menu Bar > Tools > Options.
I have tried using Add-ons such as:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/thunderbird/addon/mailbox-alert/
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/thunderbird/addon/new-mail-attention/
Which also do not help display alerts. However the "new mail attention" add-on does blink the Thunderbird icon on the Windows taskbar, so at least something can notify me.
I have also tried running Thunderbird in safe mode, and running it in compatibility mode for Windows Vista, both also did not help. This appears to be a bug in Thunderbird, as I have noticed other users mentioning the same issue.

Thank you rsx11m, your suggestion seems to have fixed it! Yes I did have Gmail configured as an IMAP account. Much appreciated.

  • New mail notification counter not appearing in dock

    I've noticed recently that my new mail notification counter doesn't appear in the dock if I have Mail sitting in the background. I can be working in, say, Word, and not know I have new mail. Yet, when I go to Mail there are emails sitting there (and the dock counter appears as soon as I go to Mail.
    Not a major problem, I agree, but it would be nice to fix it, if anyone has any suggestions.
    Cheers

    Thanks for the replies. I do have preferences set as you suggest but am not getting the notifications when Mail is in the background. I'll just live with it...

  • Mi emails notifications are not appearing as other applications, only can see them when open my mails

    Hi I have an Iphone 5c and set my email account (local provider company).
    I can receive mails perfectly and also send mails but the notification of a new mail comming is not appearing with the red globe on top of the Mail as suppose to.
    Once I entered the mail application the mails start to download and the red globe appears but not before just after I entered tha application.
    the other applications I have like whatsapp and bbm are working perfectly. I check the notification center many times and looks ok for me but don't know what could be the problem. If someone can help me I really appreciate...

    Push mail is automatically sent to your device when it arrives at the email server.  Your email account has to support this. 
    Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Fetch New Data > Push > ON,  your account > select Push (if available), Fetch, or Manual
    Below list of accounts:

  • Unread email notifications do not appear in my Gmail account on Mac Mail?

    I am driving an iMac (intel), OS 10.9.3.  My unread email notifications do not appear in my gmail account.  I have tried everything that I can think of...

    Try rebuilding the mailbox. This can take awhile if you have a lot of mail.

  • Mail notifications are not getting sent from a Calendar client

    Mail notifications are not getting sent from a Calendar client
    <p>
    On the client, after creating an event and electing to send a mail notification,
    the following error appears in a pop up box:
    "module:mailmsg.ctp,label 190, service error"
    Also, in the /users/unison/log/cws.log file on the Calendar Server, there is an
    error from the corresponding time that the client receives one:
    DEXOTEK ERRCODE Ox132B0 -> CWTCP_RemoteSecurityModified: RNC_SecurityModified
    -> Request 0x443 for NodeId 10002,
    status set to CANTSERVICE
    Solution:
    If this is only happening for one user, then check for the presence of a dbv.log
    file in the /users/unison/log directory. If present this implies db corruption
    and the /users/unison/bin/unidbfix tool should be run.
    Note: For details on "unidbfix", please read the man page and also the online
    Calendar Administrators Guide.

  • TS3276 When i receive a message in Mail it does not appear in my inbox

    When i revieve a message in mail it does not appear in my in box until i click away from the in box by going into sent mail and then returning to the in box, this has only started happening since i have moved onto Maveric OS, any ideas anyone?

    I found the answer on another forum by '''Tom Wijsman''':
    Go to Options -> Advanced -> Config Editor.
    Find the Name mail.pop3.deleteFromServerOnMove
    Set it to True.
    True: Delete the copy of the message on the POP3 server if you move or delete the message.
    False(default): Only delete the copy of the message on the POP3 server if you delete the message.
    That's it, restart Thunderbird. You need to press 'Get Mail' everytime you want to sync with the email server, in order for you to make sure messages in the application is in sync with the email server.
    The following should be emphasized to realize the sync with the server. You will not see your server message disappear upon the initial Get Mail download (new messages downloaded). After you process your Inbox in Thunderbird by deleting/moving a new message, then do another Get Mail which will delete the new messages previously downloaded on the server (put in sync).
    Note: If you have older messages in your Thunderbird Inbox, they will not be deleted from Server. Delete them manually from server. From then on, any new messages you download, then process (delete/move), and then do the sync by doing Get Mail again WILL be deleted.

  • No Server Name displyed in mail notification Alert generated by "total CPU Utilization Percentage is too high" Monitor

    Hello Everyone,
    I need your assisstance in one of the issues with Mail Notification Alert generated by SCOM.
    Mail notification received as below:
    Alert: Total CPU Utilization Percentage is too high
    Severity: 2
    ServerName:Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard  - The threshold for the Processor\% Processor Time\_Total performance counter has been exceeded. The values that exceeded the threshold are: 97.091921488444015% CPU and a processor queue length of 16.
    Last modified by: System
    The Alert was generated by "Total CPU Utilization Percentage"
    But the problem with the above mail notification is it doesn't mentions about the affected server. So I would like to know how to tweak the monitors to provide the server name into it.
    Thanks & Regards,
    VROAN

  • My notifications do not appear on my iphone, what to do?

    my notifications do not appear on my iphone, what to do?

    I found the answer. You have to manually go into the iBook store and re-download your purchased books. In the store, if you do a search and try to download your book from the search results list, you'll be charged for the cost of the book. However, if you tap into the detail screen for that book, you'll get a Download button instead of a purchase button and can download it from there.

    E-mail notification does not work. Test message fails, like everyone else. Is that possible? Someone else had this problem?

     Hello gusev67
    Have you tried with/without custom email notification (SMTP) settings?  
    Have you checked if the defaut or custom SMTP port has been forwarded to your px12?
    Have you checked if your ISP is blocking SMTP ports for your connection?

  • Mail & Notification Center not working

    Not getting any alerts/badges when receiving mail via the Mac Mail application. Here's everything I have done tested so far:
    - tested by sending email from another account, not via the mac mail app
    - uninstalled Growl, rebooted then reinstalled Growl
    - opened Notification Center prefs and turned all off, rebooted then turned all on
    - Made sure that Gen Prefs in Mail app have notifications set for any mailbox...also tested with inbox only
    - set mail account to POP and IMAP with same result
    I've made sure Mail was running in the background and still no notification when Mail arrives. Also disabled my mail acct and added an iCloud account and still no new notifications.
    Am I missing something?

    Thanks andregotz for your suggestion. I removed my personal email adress from Adressbook and all new mail now appears in NC. That is to say, when the mail app IS running. It would be nice to receive a notification in NC for new mail when the mail app is NOT running! Calendar works that way too. I receive notifications in NC for every new calendar item even when the calendar app is not running.

  • My voice mail messages are not appearing as they are left. Often no voicemails show up until 4 weeks after they have been left

    I am having trouble with my voice mail on the iPhone. The voicemails are not appearing until 3 even 4 weeks after they are left by a caller. Last night 10 voice messages came through all at once, one left before Thanksgiving. Is this an iPhone issue or an issue with the carrier?

    I'm having the same issue. It began three or four days ago. I'd notice that I'd miss a call but the person wouldn't leave a message.
    Two days later, suddenly three or four new voicemails will pop up from the past couple of days. The time stamp on the messages is correct-- it will show that the caller left the vmail a day or two before.
    Also, in what has to be a related problem, some of the voicemails appear to be corrupted and cannot be played.
    I have a 4s and my software is up-to-date. I have made no material changes to my phone, other than automatic software updates to explain this.
    It's enormously frustrating and as a job seeker, I can't afford to miss voicemails. Does anyone know if this is the phone or the carrier (AT&T)?
    Any help and input will be enormously appreciated.

  • Notification Tasks not appearing in IW22 but appears in IQS12 transaction

    Hi All,
    When I try to close the Notification then I am getting the error message u201CTasks are not completedu201D. Even in system status, I got the status there is u201COutstanding tasksu201D. But when I looked for Tasks in Notification, I can not find any tasks in Header or Item Level. In fact there is no TASK Tab at Header or Item Level.
    When I checked in QMSM Table, I found entries for that Notification. I came to know about one standard SAP transaction IQS12, where we can process (i.e. Release and / or Complete) the task of Notification. In IQS12 transaction, I found outstanding tasks for that Notification.
    I need following clarification, kindly let me know: 
    - Why the Tasks are not appearing in IW22 transaction but appearing in IQS12 transaction?
    - When we can use the IQS12 transaction / purpose of IQS12 transaction?
    Regards
    Ramu

    Hi Pete,
    Thanks for the reply!!
    For our business requirement, we don't want the task tab for Notification type. Hence we have not configured the task tab.
    I found the reason, even we don't have the task tab also we can assign the tasks to Notification by following menu path in IW22 TC: Edit > Tasks > Determine.
    This path is only activated, when we made the configuration in Define Response Monitoring > Response Time Monitoring for Notification Type. Here we are assigning the Response Profile to Notification type. In Response Profile, we define the Task Code based Priority.
    I hope in this case (i.e. where task tab not defined for Notification), we can use the IQS12 transaction to release and close task. Please let me know, if my understanding is wrong....
    Regards
    Ramu
