Hi
I've just upgraded to Office 2019 from Office 2011. Anyone know how to change to new mail sound in Outlook?

Here's the fix

1. Make sure you have closed and quit all instances of Outlook

2. Navigate to the folder where Outlook is installed. Typically, it’s in the Applications folder

3. Right-Click on Microsoft Outlook and click Show Package Contents

4. Navigate to Contents -> Frameworks

5. Find the OutlookCore.framework file and expand the tree.

6. Open the Resources folder

7. Backup your newmail.wav file into a local path just in case something goes wrong

8. Replace the newmail.wav file with any wave file of your choice, make sure you rename. (Note: You may have to authenticate/enter your administrator password to replace the file.)

9. Start Outlook and try it out!
