-
- What is it?
- ===========
- I'm going to apoligise right away here, I'm a programer, not a
- writer. If the docs don't make sense email me and I'll try and
- clarify things for you.
-
- A very simple yet powerful program, that allows you to do maintance
- on your POP3 mailbox from any Windows or OS/2 based machine.
-
- If someone has sent you a massive email attachment and your normal
- email client won't stay connected long enough to grab it use this
- handy program to delete the offending message so you can retrieve the
- rest of your mail.
-
- It's a console (text mode) application so uses very little CPU
- resorces. I tried to make it as easy to use as possibile.
-
- Requirements:
- -------------
- 386 or better Processor.
- OS/2 Warp 3.x or better.
- or
- Windows95, Windows98, Windows/NT. (Win 3.x is not supported)
- TCP/IP support.
- Already connected to the Internet.
-
- Disclaimer
- ----------
- This program will probably only take up room on your hard drive.
- It works on my system, but then it would wouldn't it? By using this
- program you agree not to hold Shawn Highfield responsible for any
- lost or damaged email.
-
- How to Use:
- -----------
- 1) Copy the self extracting file to a directory of your choosing.
- (Which you've already done :) )
- 2) Create an icon on your desktop or start menu for tnymntx.exe
- (where x is either W for win32 version, or 2 for OS/2 version)
-
- The first time Tiny's Popmaintance is run it will ask you for the
- information it needs to connect to your POP3 server.
-
- This is normaly your POP3 server, logon name, and password. But your
- ISP may have purchased a special version from me with their POP3
- information hard coded in.
-
- Main menu:
- ----------
- (S)etup - This option will allow you to re-run the setup
- portion of Tiny's POPMaintance in case you make a
- typo.
-
- (V)iew msgs - This option is the one you will mostly use. It will
- connect to your POP3 server and retrieve a list of the
- messages waiting. From there you can chose to delete
- a certain message.
-
- (D)elete ALL - *BE CAREFUL!* This option will delete ALL mail
- waiting for you.
- Note!: This option may be disabled by your ISP.
-
- (Q)uit - Quit back to your OS.
