PMail Watcher 1.5
Copyright ⌐ 1994 NOR Data i Bergslagen
PMail Watcher 1.2 is a Email notification program for
Pegasus Mail. It notifies of new or unread mail with a animated
icon (a mailbox of course!) which displays number of unread
messages, and you can even be notified by sound -by a beep or
audio .WAV files. It allows each individual user on the network
to set the notification interval and sound that suits him / her
best.
** Files included:
PMWATCH.EXE -PMail Watcher executable
OXBUTTON.VBX -Visual Basic Custom Control used by PMail Watcher
CMDIALOG.VBX -Visual Basic Control used by PMail Watcher
THREED.VBX -Visual Basic Control used by PMail Watcher

** Installing PMail Watcher:
Simply copy PMWATCH.EXE to a directory of your choice. Copy
all included .VBX files to your windows system directory,
usually C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM. One suggestion is to add PMail
Watcher to your startup group -Then you are ensured that you
will never forget a unread mail message again!
** Configuring PMail Watcher:
The first time PMail Watcher is started, it starts with some
default settings:
- The MAIL directory path defaults to F:\MAIL\[USERID].
[USERID] is the Novell User ID, i.e. F:\MAIL\F5000004.
Usually doesn't need to be changed.
- The path to Pegasus Mail is set to F:\PUBLIC\PMAIL. Ask
your network administrator if you are not sure where
Pegasus Mail is located.
- Beep when new mail arrives checkbox is unchecked.
When selected, PMail Watcher will beep when you have unread
mail waiting.
- Sound file textbox is blank.
If you have a sound card or a internal speaker driver
installed, you can enter a .WAV file that will be played
when you have unread mail waiting. The pushbutton on the
right brings up a directory list, where you can select a
.WAV file.
- Keep window / icon always on top is unselected.
If selected, the PMail Watcher window and icon will always
be displayed on top of other windows.
- Minimize Mail Watcher at startup is unselected.
When selected, PMail Watcher will be iconized when executed.
You can access the configuration window by double-clicking
on the icon.
- Scan for mail every nn min is set to 5 minutes.
Select the desided interval when PMail Watcher should scan
for unread mail. The interval can be set from 1-60 minutes,
by using the up and down buttons on the right side.
The setting are saved to PMWATCH.INI in your Windos directory.
