    Hi,

    I often use Parallels Dekstop for Mac with Windows and only Outlook/Exchange. When I want to know if I got an new mail I have to maximize Parallels Desktop and Outlook.

    I'm thinking of some notification for such things. How about an Notification support like Growl. Even better would be if Parallels can work together with growl to get information from Windows and Outlook, e.g. new mail arrived!

    Maybe you can think about this for a next release. Thanks Robert

    I would second a request for Growl compatibility. That would be way cool. Plus I would imagine (though I really don't know) that this would be easier for the Parallels team to implement than making their own notification system from scratch.

    Bump for Outlook notifications. I've just about given up on Entourage as a mail client for several reasons, and I use Outlook/Exchange within Windows. But when I get a reminder or a new email, there's no visual reminder in OS X. This is the one thing about Entourage I do like because I get notifications while working in Windows, even at full screen, because it's running in the main OS.
