RE: [Req] New Message notif when busy
From what I read, I understand that you want to set your status to Busy while still receiving Hotmail notifications but no other notifications than that.

The purpose of the Busy status is that you shouldn't be disturbed with pop-ups and flashing stuff. So enabling such notifications while you're set to Busy partially destroys the idea of it.

As for doing this with a script... well, there's no such built-in event which is called when you receive a new Hotmail message. Even if there was such an event and you'd call MsgPlus.DisplayToast to show the notification, it's not guaranteed you'd always be able to see it as the preference "Show Messenger Plus! popup notifications while Busy" has to be checked in order to let Plus! show the pop-up. And changing the actual behavior of the Busy status isn't an easy option either...

So basically, what you want is very hard to achieve in my opinion.
