Just installed Thunderbird and love it. Much better than ridiculous Windows 10 Mail, (constantly "out-of-date" errors). Only problem is I can't seem to get the New Mail Notification to sound. I have it set to the "Default Sound" under the General tab under Options, yet no sound when I press the "Play" test button. Windows 10 (64 bit). Thanks for any feedback.

If you open Settings and type sounds in the Search, then select 'Change system sounds', then for the Windows Default scheme select Windows/New Mail Notification, does it play when you click Test?

sfhowes your awesome. FIXED. I had turned ALL SOUNDS OFF in my Windows 10 sound settings because there were so many damned chimes and chirps when I purchased it new. So, I went in and turned "sounds" back on, then for each action I set the sound to "none" (top of list). Except for "DESKTOP MAIL NOTIFICATION" which I set to my desired sound and it now works perfectly! Interestingly, changing the sound for "NEW MAIL NOTIFICATION" did not change Thunderbird's default mail notification sound. Maybe that is for Windows Mail only, and "DESKTOP MAIL NOTIFICATION" is for third party mail. Either way you nailed it. Thanks a ton.
