New Email Notification

[DWD]

I love the little program Gmail Notifier. It runs unobtrusively in my windows system tray and alerts me when I get a new email in my gmail account.

 

Is there an equivalent program that will notify of new mail in my TCH account? FWIW I'm using SquirrelMail.

 

(Not interested in workarounds such as forwarding my mail to my gmail account.)

 

Thanks.

Try out PopTray, it's free.

Bingo! That exactly what I'm looking for...thanks!

 

Now trying to configure...I may have trouble since my employer has shut down our system pretty tight. I can only get to TCH email via http://domain-name.com/sqmail, although I have no problem with gmail. I can't access cpanel or ftp accounts from work either...will I still be able to use this?

 

If so, what do I put in for "Server" and what "port" do I select, default is 110?

 

I tried mail.domain-name.com and 110 and received: "Connect Error: Socket Error # 10060 Connection times out."

 

Thanks again for your help.

mail.your-domain.com for the server, port 110 and your full email address and password

 

If those don't work then your being blocked at work. If they won't let you use port 110 and you can only access via port 80 (webmail) you won't be able to use any of the tray notifiers.

Bummer...that's what I was afraid of, it's not working here at work. Oh well, I'll install it at home. Thanks again for the help.
