I just downloaded the Google one for gmail. I am testing that. I looked at the one biff program but that required I install tcl. I don't want to install anything else to run. It takes 11k of RAM so it takes 4k less than our internal email notifier. I am going to try this for a few days and see how it works. What amazed me was it knew my google email account. I was logged into my google email at the time I downloaded so I guess it looks at the google cookie. Anyway it works and lets see how I like it.

I use Thunderbird for IMAP mail, and it lets me know when I have new mail. I've got multiple accounts configured, so my work mail, personal mail, and *other* are all segregated, but easily accessible. Can your root mail account be reached by IMAP? Allan > Thanks > > John J.
