- 1. ABOUT MAILBELL
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- This is the Version 1.x of MailBell.
-
- MailBell is a utility that lives in your system tray and checks
- email periodically. I can check multiple accounts and works on
- lans and permanent internet connections as well as with dial-up
- networking (where it automatically detects when you go online).
- When new mail arrives the program can automatically start your
- mail reader, play a sound and/or display an unobstrusive notification
- window from which yon can start your mail reader if you like
- (by clicking with your right mouse button on it). MailBell
- can be configured to handle different types of email in different
- ways, eg. to suppress the sound for spam mail. It also displays
- the number of available messages in the system tray icon.
-
-
- The program automatically switches between English and German
- language, depending on your system's settings (under Windows 95
- this is the same language as Windows, under Windows NT it is the
- Regional setting in the Control Panel).
-
- The program can be tested for 30 days. During that time you have
- to press an OK button every hour. After that time it must be either
- purchased or deleted. Order and purchase informations can be found
- in the help menu and in the separate order application.
