I used to get a whoosh sound when sending and a ding when receiving emails. but they've suddenly stopped working.
Sound works ok for everything else. have checked in Systems and it looks as though they should still be switched on.
please help

Have you hit your side switch? Muting system sounds doesn't affect music, so it can easily be missed. See if there is an orange dot visible. If there is, it's set to mute.

Thanks for the reminder, Leelai. I often forget to ask people to get back to us if suggestions work. It helps us to know whether we are giving good advice as well as helping other people with the same problem.

Feedback is always good.

So true Kevin, I have learnt many new things myself when OP's give us their feedback and it's always good to have the answer confirmed in the thread for others to see.

I tried this but still no sound effects when I send or receive emails. What else shall I do?
thanks, Susan
