Re-show the Outlook Envelope Icon [Field Notes]

Problem:

I hid the Outlook envelope by accident, thinking it was temporary. Of course, it isn’t. D’oh.

Solution

To get it back:

• Tools Menu > Options
• Click the E-Mail Options button.
• Click the Advanced E-Mail Options button.
• In the When new items arrive in my Inbox section, check the Show an envelope icon in the notification area checkbox.
• Click okay to confirm the various options screens and you’ll be back in business.
