Dear...
Does anyone know of a good e-mail checker, preferably free, for WFWG. Notify looked as if it had promise but kept telling me that my connetion to the pop3 server was impossible. I want something that I can use to delete unwanted mails before downloading, like Magic Mail Monitor.
Thanks,
John

If you're just wanting to check before you download to your e-mail client, then E-mail Notify may be all you need (small-252KB)

With (email) notify , I recall it took me a bit
of tweaking to get the right entry under
'pop server' , different apps want it
entered differently- eg. some want
pop.mymail.com, some just want
mymail.com, and so forth..it ended up OK
eventually...

Hi T-R-A,
I agree, but I can't seem to get the damn thing configured right. I keep getting the message "Error: connection to pop3 server impossible" I've tried every bloody server name I can think of. Usually it's idirect.com or mail.look.ca, but neither of these works.

What do you mean by "mymail" and "pop"?
Thanks,
John

Hi Soedesh,
Yes, that's what I'm using at present, but it doesn't allow me to delete messages from my ISP's server.
Thanks,
John
