Overview
is a customizable e-mail notification program.
In depth
You can customize MailAlert to notify you differently based on the message author or subject. For example, you could play a special sound (WAV) file when you get e-mail from your boss. If you receive lots of mail, there are two ways to limit which messages you are notified of. Using a custom notification, you can configure MailAlert to ignore messages from a particular author, or having a subject that contains some specified text. For example, you can set up a custom notification to ignore all messages from a particular coworker that contain the word "Help" in the subject. In addition, there is an option to only notify you of messages for which you have set up at least one custom notification. Of course, when you run your e-mail program, all messages will be there regardless of whether you didn't want to be notified of them as they arrived. If you use Microsoft Exchange, MailAlert can be set up to dial-up and download your e-mail at specified time intervals.
Other features include: flexible scheduling; support for multiple mailboxes; message previewing; dial-up networking support; and more.
