HOW TO GET NOTIFICATIONS OF NEW EMAIL IN WINDOWS 8 [JUST LIKE GOOGLE TALK]

Now that Google stopped supporting Google talk desktop application, and we were all used to getting pop ups whenever a new mail is available , I have some good news for you. If you are on windows 8 or Windows 8.1, you can get realtime alerts of new email through the Windows 8 Mail application. All you need to do is:
1. Open the Mail app. 
2. Add your gmail account by holding Windows Button + C
  •   Go to settings
  •   Accounts
  •   Add an account
3. To get notification of new email,

  • Open the Mail app.
  • Press the Windows key + C to open the Charms Bar.
  • Click on Settings > Accounts.
  • Select the account of your choice (if multiple). 

  • Click on the "Show email notifications" menu and make your selection:
    • Never
    • Email your favorites
    • All email
