Yahoo Messenger e mail alert

[Mollie the cat]

I know its an old system, does anyone on here still use it please? I have had the message (email) voice alert for a long time but it has suddenly stopped working? I have tried everything under the sun but to no avail.
I am not very technical minded, someone told me Yahoo no longer supports this, does anyone know please? I can still hear everything else so its not the sound system, I have enabled sounds, preferences the lot
I have also downloaded other alert systems no luck there either, it must be in my gubbins somewhere which stops it.

Thank you in advance.
