Usage
--------------
I want E-Check to be small, smart, and cool. I try hard to design the
interface and wish everyone can easily use it without a manual (also,
because I am lazy to write one). So, I just describe briefly here. If
you still get a problem on using it, sorry about that. Just give me a
mail.
<Install & Uninstall>
Installation: Unzip it into a dir on your hard disk and make a short
cut on desktop for it. Then, run it, that's all. Surely, you must set
up some options for the first time. They are nothing but common network
settings such as IP address, login name, and password. You must fill
all the data need besides password. If you didn't enter a password in
the option page, E-Check will ask you for it when E-Check access the
server for the first time, then the password will be remembered till
you turn off E-Check.
Uninstallation: I really hate some huge programs put a lot of trash
everywhere in my hard disk. So I make E-Check a "Garbage-free-ware".
All the files are put into the same dir and there is no need to install
any other DLL or something. If you want to uninstall it, just kill
the entire dir of E-Check.
<Hot Key, Popup Menu, Dockable Bar>
There are hot keys for you to execute some functions. You can see them
in the main menu. Popup menus are available for mail lists and tray icon.
Just right click on them, then the popup menu will appear. The buttons
on the main window are dockable, you can put them anywhere you like.
<Sound & Animation>
You can choose your own animation and sound files which you want to
display when there are new mails in your mail box.
The program looks fine on 1024x768 HiColor screen. At least 800x600
256 color is recommended. You can change the animation that will be
displayed when new mails coming. The animation must be a 200x150 avi
file. There is an avi file included in the E-Check pack.
If there are new mails coming in, the animation will be displayed on the
screen. By checking 'Stay on top' option, you can make it always be the
topest window. Double click on it will bring up the minimized main window
and close this animation. Sound can be disabled by checking the 'No Sound'
option.
<E-Mail Program>
You can assign a E-Mail program like Eudora and turn on the auto load
function. After this, the program will be loaded by E-Check automatically
to help you reply the new mails. Also, you can load it by click the load
button.
<Highlight Keywords>
You can set three keywords and their colors in option page. If one of
the keywords are found in 'From' or 'Subject' of your mail, the color
will be changed to notify you.
<Delete Mails>
You can delete a mail by selecting delete from main menu, popup menu or
button bar. Then the mail will be marked by a 'x'. It will not be deleted
until the next check. Before this, you can use 'undo delete' to unmark
all mails. If you check up the 'Auto Delete' option, all mails on the
server will be deleted automatically.
<Viewer>
If you want to view a mail, just double click on it. Turn on 'Auto View'
will automatically download new mails for you. You can open many viewer
at the same time. Check the 'No Header' option will erase the header of
mail. If you press the print button in the viewer, the content will be
printed.
Mails that were encoded by Quoted-Printable and BASE64 format will be
decode automatically. Other MIME format maybe cause some problems. Mails
that are greater than 64k bytes will not be displayed.
<Modem>
All settings are in the option page 'Dial up'. Be sure to check the
'Enable dial up'. 'Check only when connected' decide if E-Check should
dial up for you when you are off-line. You can also setup redial times
and redial interval. If you want to dial up manually, you can click the
'Dial' button on the dock bar.
