Download/HomepageJust fire up E-Mail Notify (or CIE-Check Lite), and a big smile will creep
across your face. E-Mail Notify is no conventional email checker, although it is easy to
set up, and handles multiple POP3 accounts and outgoing STMP with nimble grace. You caught
that... yes, E-mail Notify has a built-in client for those quick messages when you don't
feel like launching your regular (slow-loadin') email client. Handles Internet FAX too,
and offers basic spam filtering.
Now that this neat app has caught on, with the latest version 3.75, it has been split into
a freeware CIE-Check Lite edition and the full-featured E-Mail Notify shareware edition.
Here's what's been added in the latest release: address book saves are bug-free; there's a
change in the header viewer according to new Hotmail web content; it works better in
redirection when you have c.c. (carbon copy); you can now redirect your email from one
account to another account automatically; and password protection is added. Also, in case
you haven't tried this out, there's a TIF printer driver included (but demo version).
The other nice features are for E-Mail Notify are: For email attachments, E-Mail notify
allows you to Zip files right there in the program, send regular attachments, and screen
captures too. New-mail notification options are interesting as well -- the tray icon will
flash the number of new messages in each account. Choose a different color per account,
and, for example, a flashing blue envelope with a 3 on it would denote that many messages
in account A, another color envelope for account B, etc. And here's a new approach to new
mail notification: you can have the num/caps/scroll lock keys flash to announce new
messages, as well as the flashing icon and/or the audio of your choice.
Yet more surprises: A right-click on the tray icon gives you access to all finds of
shortcuts: to Windows utilities (like to start your screen saver, reboot your machine),
Internet utilities ( like fetching IPs or launching dial-up networking), to your Inbox,
Outbox, and to launch your external client. One-stop shopping.
E-Mail Notify also supports proxy settings for accessing your Hotmail account, and allows
automatic online checking, as well as manual checking via tray icon double-click. When
you've read your new message headers, you can add/delete/reply right from the viewer, but
you can also launch your external email client from within E-Mail Notify. This program
does its job quietly, quickly, and its inventive features will keep you smilin'.
Note that the freeware CIE-Check Lite doesn't have all these features, but it'll give you
a good feel for whether the fully featured edition suits your work habits. It's only $20.
