Yes I have been getting the "odd sounds" too. I would describe them as music with static. I don't think it is due to setting different ways of notifying of new mail. The only change I have made in the way is to flash the screen when mail with an attachment is sent or received. The "strange noise" does not occur every time I download messages either. Dave ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------- Hi All, There have been two notes posted on the Junoaccmail Message Board (http://www.junoaccmail.org/bbs) re: strange sounds emanating from Juno. See below for the gist... "Does anybody else's Juno play a sound clip shortly after opening the mail viewer that sounds like bubbling noises then the intro to "We're not gonna take it"? I posted this on another board where one other juno user was having the same problem, but so far we've found no explanation or resolution. My machine has had viral attacks in the past but currently scans clean. Whucha think folks?" I'm not sure if this is the problem or not, but I've been meaning to mention that if you don't like the way Juno "notifies" you of new mail in Juno 5, you have an alternative. You can use the Mail Assistants (filters) to set up your own sound and pop-up notifiers. You can add a different sound clip and pop-up for messages from Mom for instance, different ones for Sis, another set for Dad. You can just have sound, or just a pop-up if you like. Kind of interesting to play around with really. One note about order... when I put both sound and a pop-up, I put the sound as the first "action" you want Juno to take. The pop-up requires an "OK" click to make the box go away and proceed to the next action... so the sound notifier just sits there waiting for you to click that OK before it plays when it's the second action. Now how the particular filter and sound clip may have gotten added to the Mail Assistants of the folks who've posted to the Message Board is anybody's guess.
