AUTOMAIL V1.40 English

Automail was originally developed for large companies who use a router to dial-up the ISP whenever an external connection is needed, but who doesn't use the internet intensively. Coordinating the e-mail checks all over the company to every full hour, would limit the traffic to the whole hours and give a message to those users that have received e-mail. 

Automail is a sys-tray program that checks one or more POP3-accounts in the background. Automail can check in regular intervals like every minute or every hour, and gives a message, a sound or an indication in the systray that mail has arrived.  Users can add sounds and images themselves that will act as notifiers.
