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.
