Check Mail

When unread mail is detected you are alerted via the task bar icon, and a balloon pop-up (if configured).
You can then view the unread mail directly from the server and choose to delete individual mail you do not
want to keep. This is all done before you download any mail onto your computer using your normal email
client application.

This utility is invaluable for removing potential viruses, spam and junk mail before they get anywhere near
your computer.

Comes with comprehensive user guide
