Kristan:

Nice little program, does as advertised....why doesn't Microsoft think
ahead?? Outlook can to it by default...little wonders that never cease....
Thanks, Kristan!

Kristian Kenney:

Another satisfied customer. Thanks for taking time to create the app. Much
appreciated.

Hi, does it tell you when new mail has come in?

No it does not.

Windows Mail tells you when new mail has come in,
with both auditory and visual clues.
Just run it minimized if you like.

I can´t understand MS when they don´t include such an important feature.
The Guys from Mozilla Thunderbird did also not really well.
Thank you for Patching a Programm from such a huge concern.

That feature is in Windows Live Mail, but I personally can't see
what good it is or why it would be "a huge concern" to anyone.

I have the mail client running all the time my computer is on,
and if for some reason its open window bothered me, I'd
minimize it. Let's face it, Windows users are accustomed to
having multiple windows open at the same time.

It is incredible. I've just installed it and I had my Windows Mail open, and
when I cliked on the X to close Windows Mail, instead it was minimized to the
System Tray.
Thanks a lot. Abraços do Brasil (Hugs from Brazil)
