HD Mail Page - Unattended Email Checking
Posted by Janak Parekh in "SOFTWARE" @ 09:00 PM
A request I've frequently heard on the forums is for tips on checking email periodically in an unattended fasion, especially on a device like a Pocket PC Phone. While the Inbox applet lets you do this, it requires that you keep the device on. This little program might just fix that solution.
"HD Mail Page solves many of the shortcomings of Microsoft's built-in Inbox application and gives the user a wider range of choices for email interaction. The application uses any standard POP3 email accounts established within Inbox, but gives the user the ability to configure the Pocket PC to automatically check multiple email accounts, send email in the Outbox, and inform the user when new mail has arrived, all without any intervention from the user. In addition, it can be configured to power the Pocket PC on and off to perform the email account checks to conserve on the Pocket PC's limited power."
