INTRODUCTION
YGM stands for 'You've Got Mail'.
It checks your POP mailboxes for new mails so that you do not have to
start your favourite yet sometimes bulky mail client just for this.
YGM shows you how many mails are waiting in your mailboxes for download
and their approximate size.
YGM is also useful for email providers who require a POP3 authentication
before you are allowed to send emails over their SMTP servers, a security
feature also known as 'SMTP-after-POP'.
EINFÜHRUNG
YGM steht für 'You've Got Mail' ('Du hast Post' oder auch 'e-m@il für
Dich' ;-).
Es prüft die eigenen POP-Mailboxen auf neue EMails, so daß dafür nicht
extra der sonst bevorzugte aber manchmal etwas voluminöse EMail-Client
gestartet werden muß.
YGM zeigt an, wie viele EMails in den eigenen Mailboxen auf den Download
warten, sowie deren ungefähre Größe.
YGM ist außerdem bei EMail-Providern nützlich, die eine POP3-Authentifi-
zierung erfordern, bevor EMails über deren SMTP-Server verschickt werden
können, ein Sicherheits-Feature, das auch als 'SMTP-after-POP' bekannt
ist.
