Programs like winamp have this option built in which is nice I think that Outlook should too.

I have heard of a third party program that does this, but I don't think it is built into Windows itself.

I'm positive I have seen at least one program for this, can't remember the name though. If you have a scour round http://www.winfiles.com there is bound to be something there.
