I use included mail software, not Outlook from MS Office. The problem is that:
1. No any sound notifications about new received mail although in Control Panel =>Sounds, I can control it
2. I can not change the signature at the foot of written messages; is there that option?
Thanks for any help

For the sounds:

  2. Open PC settings
  3. Select search and apps
  4. Select notification sounds
  5. Enable notification sounds

While in the Mail app, swipe from right side, press Settings, then Accounts. Then for each account (if you have multiple emails configured), select the account, then scroll down until you find the 'Show email notifications' settings. You can see the setting in a previous post on this thread: from Laura Knotek on 08-24-2014 2:18 AM: the last screen shot shows it is set to 'Never' - the opposite of what you want.

I hope that helps. :smile:
