A third and maybe more efficient way.
If you are an ICQ user is to set ICQ up to check your email, however often you like.
You have two choices, you can have it set to check only (like myself) or use it as a full blown email client, in which case it will periodically check and download your mail while you are online.  The frequency can be from 1 to 99 minutes.
 
If you use it to check your mail only, when it checks it will advise you only if there is NEW mail.  You simply double click the flashing mail Icon, the box opens, you can then see instantly who its from, what the subject is and the SIZE.
 
If you don't want a particular mail, you just click on it and press delete.  It will delete it directly from your server.  This is also a great way of stopping things like the HAHAHA virus.  They NEVER get near your system.
