Loud notification of new email

I need to set up my iPad Air2 to alert me when I have new e-mail and it needs to be loud. My job requires me to be in and out of the area where my iPad is located. I would like my iPad act like my cell phone does. When I missed a call or have a new voice message it will continue to alert me until I stop it or listen to my voice messages. The alerts are important. My employer has changed how it communicates to us when we are on the road. I am required to get my work instructions now by e-mail and I did not want a smart phone because the screen is not large enough for me. I was hoping the iPad would have the same features of a smart phone. Any help would be great.

Hey guys, thanks for your help. No I have definitely used move and the problem I am having is that when a new message arrives it moves into the sub-folder and no number counter displays next to the sub-folder. The strange(r) thing is that this is quite erratic - sometime I'll get a message, from amazon say, and Mail will move the message to the amazon folder and display a 1 next to the folder indicating there is a new message and other times it will move the message but not put a number up (meaning I have to click every folder to see where the message I got has been put).

HT201342 Are there any setting or some way to show notifications for new email without open Apple Mail app ?

Are there any setting or some way to show notifications for new email without open Apple Mail app ?
You know , I am an OCD . I alway's close my Mail app and miss many important new emails .

What I do is open the Mail.app, then click the red traffic light (upper left corner of the main Mail.app window) to close that window. The app itself will remain running and you will get updates - this helps keep the desktop tidy while while the mail app remains running. When an update is received, simply click the either the mail icon in your dock or go to the Mail.app menu and click Window > Message Viewer.

How can i get notification of new emails in Mail without having the application open?

How can i get notification of new emails in Mail without having the application open?

Leave Mail running, but close its window (click red dot or ⌘W).
Right-click the Mail icon and use "Options" to enable "Open at Login". In the "Login Items" tab of "Users & Groups" system preference, check the "Hide" box next to Mail so it doesn't open a window when starting.

Run photo display and have notification for new emails?

Thinking about buying an ipod touch - can anyone tell me whether I could run a picture program - just displays selected pictures - and also be notified with a sound when email arrives? Or do I have to shut the photo program down to check email?
thanks for any help...

I know that I'm able to run the built in photo app, listen to music, browse the internet, and more and I will still get notified that I have a new email. Example I'll be listening to music, and the music will dim and I will hear the notification tone, the music will rase back to my listening volume. Then I'll pull said iPod out of pocket and read new email.
Also the built in photo app has a slide show, for displaying a constant stream of photos.
hope that helps,

On-screen notification for new email on C6-00

Hello everyone. I' ve setup my C6-00 to synchronize with my Gmail and Mail for Exchange account every 4 hours .It seems to work right but i only get sound notifications when there are new emails.
Is there any way to have a notification on the screen too?

I have the same problem i would like see it resolved, its weird having notification by sound and not on the screen, i dont like the idea of using widgets, if the book say that is possible to see email notification as one sms... would be nice see it works : )
Oh NO! Run!!! It's the C6-00!! " NHOM NHOM NHOM"

Is there a way to receive an audible notification for new email?

Is there a way to receive an audible notificaton for new email?

If your email provider supports Push email, then you will get audible email notifications automatically. Otherwise, email is only checked when you open the email app.
If you have Fetch New Data set to automatically check every 15, 30, or 60 minutes then you will also get the tone when the system checks for mail and finds mail available. If you set Fetch New Data to Manually then you will only get the email checked when you open the Mail app.

Notification of new email in sub-folders

Dear all,
I have created several rules for my inbox so that specific emails move into specific folders. The problem that I am having is that when Mail receives a new email fitting the rules, it makes the new message sound and then moves the email into the correct folder but does not tell me which folder the new email has moved into. This means that after hearing that I have a new email I have to click through each of my sub-folders to find the message that has just been moved. Thunderbird does not have this problem with the same email account. Any suggestions? (Other than move back to Thunderbird!)
Thanks.

I installed the IOS 8.0.2 patch and it has sped up the email etc but I no longer get an on-icon notification that new emails have arrived or new messages.

Mail used to be shown as a number on the email icon and the same with imessage and so on. These have all stopped working and i have to manually open the client to check if there is email (no, it is not set to manual update but to every 15 minutes). I guess another broken part of the wonderful IOS 8xx

What do you mean, "No it didn't?" I just meant that's how things are working (or not working) on my end. I've done some Googling, and it seems like this is an issue for lots of people, and it's not always consistent either.

Offlineimap "New Email" notification scripts

I recently started using offlineimap/mutt to keep track of three email accounts. I wanted notifications when new email arrived so I tried some notification programs that worked with Maildir but didn't find any that I liked. So I came up with this script:
#!/bin/sh
MAILDIR1=$HOME/Email/maildir1/INBOX/new
MAILDIR2=$HOME/Email/maildir2/INBOX/new
MAILDIR3=$HOME/Email/maildir3/Inbox/new
echo "Watching $MAILDIR1"
while MAILNAME1=$(inotifywait -qe MOVED_TO --format '%f' $MAILDIR1)
do
echo $MAILNAME1
mailpop $MAILDIR1/$MAILNAME1
done&
echo "Watching $MAILDIR2"
while MAILNAME2=$(inotifywait -qe MOVED_TO --format '%f' $MAILDIR2)
do
echo $MAILNAME2
mailpop $MAILDIR2/$MAILNAME2
done&
echo "Watching $MAILDIR3"
while MAILNAME3=$(inotifywait -qe MOVED_TO --format '%f' $MAILDIR3)
do
echo $MAILNAME3
mailpop $MAILDIR3/$MAILNAME3
done
I modified a script for procmail notifications I found here http://miek.nl/posts/2008/Jun/09/a-popu … rocmailrc/ for nicely formatted notifications and added two lines to speak the notification as well.
mailpop
#!/bin/bash
# popup a small notification with 'notify-send'
from=`formail -X From: < $1`
sub=`formail -X Subject: < $1`
# tweaks < > are special
from=${from//</$}
from=${from//>/$}
from=${from//&/\.}
sub=${sub//</$}
sub=${sub//>/$}
sub=${sub//&/\.}
sub=${sub:0:200}
from=${from:0:75}
TM=2000
/usr/bin/notify-send -u normal -t $TM "$from" "$sub"
while pgrep speech2 > /dev/null; do sleep 1; done
speech2 New Email ${from%(*}, With $sub, has arrived
#echo "New Email $from, With $sub has arrived" | festival --tts
At first I used festival for speech, but Google's voice sounded so much better. This script will speak up to 100 characters, just requires mplayer:
speech2
#!/bin/bash
say() { local IFS=+;/usr/bin/mplayer -ao alsa -really-quiet -noconsolecontrols "http://translate.google.com/translate_tts?tl=en&q=$*"; }
say $*

Anyone else have a script/program they like for maildir notifications? Also I would be interested in making these work as a systemd user service.

For any other i3 users, jasonwryan script works great with i3status and i3bar useing the example from i3status manual:
i3status | while :
do
read line
echo "Email: $(eml) | $line" || exit 1
done
Edit: This is better, works with colors:
i3status | (read line && echo $line && read line && echo $line && while :
do
read line
dat=$(eml)
dat="[{ \"full_text\": \"Email: ${dat}\" },"
echo "${line/[/$dat}" || exit 1
done)

Not getting notifications for push emails

I have an iPhone 5s with IOS 7.1.2 installed. I have a mail account set up pointing to my company's Exchange server. I will frequently not get notifications of new email until I open the email app on my phone. I won't get them when the email actually arrives in my mailbox (which is the purpose of push technology). Any ideas why I'm not getting these notifications? I have alerts turned on (banner, badge app icon, show in notification center, show preview), so ideally, I believe I have everything I need turned on. The account is also configured as 'Push' in the 'Fetch New Data' section of the menu.
Thanks in advance for any help with this.

Hi fletchi18,

It sounds like there is an issue with your iPhone receiving push notifications from your companies Exchange server. The article linked below has a lot of great information and suggestions which will resolve most issues like the one you described.

Just got a new macbook air I added 2 google email accounts to the mail program. The mail downloaded thousands of emails and now on the top right hand corner I get bombarded by notification of these emails from 3-4 years ago and it is non stop.

When I added 2 gmail accounts to my new macbook air. The email program download thousands of emails and now I am getting notifications non stop on the top right hand corner from years ago it is non stop notification for the emails from like 2007 really old emails. I am not sure why it is notifying me of old emails I know it is new just downloaded in the program but it should only notify me of recent emails shouldn't it?

If your email client (Mail) it set to never delete emails from the server, they stay there waiting. The server doesn't track what you've already downloaded, so a new setup of Mail just grabs whatever it finds on the server. You can change this in Settings, but for now, you have all your old emails to sort.

I want a notification sound when I receive a new email

I have the sound turned on Windows 7 Enterprise, and I have checked in my Outlook 2010 to make a notification sound when I receive a new email, but no sound is made when I receive an email. Can anyone advise me how to get this to work?

Hi,
The sound option for new coming emails lies in: File tab -> Options -> Mail -> Message arrival -> Please confirm you have selected the checkbox
Play a sound.
If you only don’t get a sound when receiving emails from some specific senders, you may have set up some rules to manage incoming emails, please make sure you have selected the
Play a sound checkbox in the rules.
If there’s still no sound, please run Outlook in Safe Mode to determine if it’s related to 3rd-party add-ins:
Press Win + R and type “outlook.exe /safe” in the blank box, then press Enter.
If there’s no problem in Safe Mode, disable the suspicious add-ins to verify which add-ins caused this issue.
I hope this helps.

How can I disable the new email notification pop-up window?

When I am trying to perform timed Lumosity games and the new email notification window pops up over the window I'm working in, it's very disconcerting and bothersome. I'd like to disable this auto pop up, but can't find out how to do so.

Tools (Alt-T) - Options - General - When new messages arrive
Uncheck the notification(s).
