Thanks for trying it out for us. One suggestion when you are waiting for important mail, but don't want to check at every schedule is to use a sound to notify you of important mail. For example, >From is in category Work Run AppleScript Script xxxx Details on using playing sounds with script can be found here: <http://www.entourage.mvps.org/rules/sounds.html> -- Diane Ross Mac MVP Entourage Help Page <http://www.entourage.mvps.org/> -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
