Hi all,

Does anyone know of a good imap mail notification utilty, especially one
that works with Outlook Express? It's a long story, but after admitting
defeat in routing my private email through gmail (due to their 'sent on
behalf' header thingy that shows up in Outlook - which i don't like) i've
set up one imap account on my OE to retreive my email. The problem is, I
like using system tray mail notification utilties in conjunction with OE,
and none of them work well with IMAP. It seems they only respond to the
local inbox. I tried imapnotify but I don't like it at all.

I would equally be willing to try a different email client, but I've already
used Thunderbird, and although I think it's the best client for IMAP by far
(especially as regards different imap identities) and it has good mail
notification extensions, I find it extremely slow to use. What keeps
bringing me back to OE is the speed of navigation within the program.

So can anyone advise me?

HI.

Have you tried POPTRAY with the IMAP plugin:
http://www.poptray.org/plugins.php

I haven't tested its IMAP capabilities but you can try and check for yourself,
as it is a very handy utility.

Have you also checked the other email notifiers available at:
www.nonags.com
?

Thanks for this tip - I used to use mail2web and mail2wap in the past to
check on pop3 accounts - I had no idea it was so improved and handled IMAP
so well - thanks!
