My mail program is able to stay minimized and check for mail on a schedule. So why should I use MailAlert – what are the advantages?

1. You can unload your mail program, saving memory. Keeping MailAlert open and scheduled for mail checks consumes only between 100 kB and 900 kB of memory while a program such as Microsoft Outlook consumes about 8 MB (8000 kB). The saved memory will make your other programs run faster or allow you to run more programs at the same time. 2. MailAlert offers IFS (Incredibly Flexible Scheduling). Using MailAlert’s schedule feature, there is no combination of days and check times that MailAlert cannot handle. 3. Custom Notifications – based on incoming author or subject, you can play different media files or execute any program. People have used this feature to alert them differently if a message comes from their boss; send messages to their pager when their child sends email to them; etc. etc. See the Help Topic Innovative Solutions for a look at the possibilities MailAlert opens. 4. Standard mail programs do not offer all of the audio and video notification options that MailAlert does. Fo
