Hi Gary,
First, basic troubleshooting questions. Has anything in the system changed? OS, Outlook version, Fox version, etc?

Second thought... I would swear I have seen this before. Could that outlook be in a state for some reason that it is unable to popup a message, even if you tried manually? I.e. Outlook has some modal dialog in the foreground?
