Notify can alert you in three ways: a dialog box, a sound, or a list of new items and alarms.

Notification Method |
What Happens |
|---|---|
|
Notify dialog box |
The Notify dialog box opens on top of whatever application you are using when you receive a new item or alarm. |
|
Notify sound |
Notify plays a system beep or sound file when you receive an item. When you receive an alarm, the sound plays once every five minutes until you clear the alarm from the Notification List. |
|
Notification list |
The Notification List is a dialog box that lists all of the new, unopened items and alarms you have received. You can leave it open on your desktop, or open it from the Notify icon when you want to see it. |
You can receive alarms and notifications for another user if that user gives you those rights in the Access List and if you are on the same post office as that user. See Section 10.0, Mailbox/Calendar Access for Proxy Users.
If you are sending messages to non-GroupWise systems, remember that those systems must have status tracking capability in order to return the status of your outgoing message to your GroupWise system.
