I use Outlook Express, how do i get something to popup if a new email is
received, or something that flashes

To my knowledge, Express only has this feature for sound.
If you install Windows Messenger and have it enabled, it will work with
you Express and visually let you know. To get Windows Messenger go to

http://messenger.msn.com/download/Default.aspx?client=0

By the way, to enable the sound notification in Express...
To receive audio notification of new messages
On the Tools menu, click Options.
On the General tab, select the Play sound when new messages arrive check box

You can use sound (OE Tools / Options), or you can
use a third party mail checker, like Magic Mail Monitor.

A small, free utility that sits in the systray. Set to check at
varying intervals, whether OE is open or not; pop-up and/or sound
notification; lets you preview (and handle) mail at the server.
