POP3 Email checker


Question

i'm looking for a very BASIC pop3 email checking program that resides in the system tray and checks for new mail every 5 minutes. also, i need to be able to open the email client of my choice (outlook express) using the tray program.

is there such a program available? any links?

or you can use AIM to tell you when you have mail. when you do get mail, a window can pop up and tell you, and you can use your favorite email prog to read them ;)

IBM NotesBuddy is wonderfull, but I don't know if it's able to open your emails in outlook. It is able to:

- Announce important new mail by voice, pager, or display

- Instant messaging and buddy status

- Work with Lotus Notes and POP3 mail

- Filter important email based on names or keywords

- Send voice messages

- Minmize in Systray & ...

I have used POPbox for years. It's tiny and extremely simple. The whole thing resides in a single executable file. It checks one or more POP3 accounts at given intervals, and can notify with a sound and/or dialog box showing sender, subject, and if elected a few lines from the message. This dialog has a close button, a preview button, and an open button (which can be configured to launch Outlook Express or any other e-mail program). It can also search for certain words in the header and respond differently to those messages (including running any program). As much as I adore this program, I cannot for the life of me find it anywhere. I have the executable file with no documentation, and it is hacked to have the same icons at Outlook Express 6. If you would like, I could e-mail it to you.
