Thanks for trying MailFlag.

A few things you probably should know:

  When you delete messages, they are not placed in the
  'wastebasket' or 'deleted' folder. The are irretrievably deleted.

  MailFlag must have COMMDLG.DLL and MAPI.DLL available. MS Mail 
  should have installed these libraries on your system. Other than 
  that, "installation" is just a matter of running the program.

For more on these and other issues, look through the on-line Help. The
'General Concepts' should prove useful. The help is also where you'll 
find registration information & prices.

MailFlag is shareware. If you continue to use it after 30 days, you 
must register.  Nonetheless, this is a "low nag" program.

Version History:

Ver 1.51 - 11 Dec 95
 "Save Icon Posn" was not always working
 Command line now allows profile names with spaces, e.g.
     -u"MS Exchange Settings"
 popup removal on msg read (added in v1.5) has problems,
     feature removed
 warning msg about having moved MailFlag.EXE occurred in error

Ver 1.5 - 11 Nov 95
 MailFlag32 Win95/WinNT/Exchange compatible version created
 <Alt><Tab> to an unfocused popup now sets focus to the default 
     action button
 If there were more unread msgs at startup than max popup windows 
     allowed, the popups got out of sync with new msgs
 If a msg is read in Mail while the popup is still visible, the
     popup is removed

Ver 1.46 - 25 Jun 95
 An Options/Setup dialog accidently lost in v1.45, replaced
 
Ver 1.45 - 20 Jun 95
 Added small popup dialog option (under Options/Popup Details)
 Added option for the popup to not take the focus (under
     Options/Configuration)
 Provided for easier internationalization of the code
 
Ver 1.44 - 9 May 95
 Fixed 'remind me later'
 
Ver 1.43 - 26 Mar 95
 Fixed saving of popup window status in INI file (e.g. could turn off
     Options/Popup Box, then couldn't get it back on)
 Added slightly better notification response over DOS apps. Still slower
     than over Windows though.
 Fixed 'unread' count in window/icon title when using MSMail activation
 Fixed 'run mail' from icon menu and 'activate mail' from popup so
     that they act the same
 If MSMail not in the PATH, MailFlag changes to its dir before execution
     to help MSMail find its spelling DLLs.

Ver 1.42 - 11 Feb 95
 Fixed repeating audio alerts when using MSMail postoffice polling
     (broke it in 1.4)
     
Ver 1.41 - 6 Feb 95
 Fixed GPF caused by more than 105 unread msgs in INBOX
 Fixed -u command line parameter passing (broke it in v1.4)
 Added recognition of "Security=1" in MSMAIL.INI
 
Ver 1.4 - 28 Dec 94
 Added 'Send Mail' option from the system (icon) menu
 Added capability for MSMail to do the new-mail polling and alert
     MailFlag on new mail. This reduces MailFlag CPU cycle requirements 
     and LAN traffic when MSMail is running. (menu Options/Setup)
 MailFlag window/icon "flash" "off" when polling for new mail, and
     back "on" when the poll is finished
 Added capability for MailFlag to sign out of mail during "off hours"
     This allows network backups to back up your message file if it
     is stored on the server (menu Options/Login)
 Fixed it so that a <Space> does not activate the default button in 
     the popup window (completion of the first change under ver 1.3,
     below)
 Fixed it so that if MAPI.DLL is not found, you get an error message,
     rather than just exiting with no warning.
 
Ver 1.31 - 12 Mar 94
 'Popup Location' added to option menu; sets location of alert
     windows and the maximum number visible at one time
 -u and -p parameters added to command line to allow specification
     of mail logon username and password

Ver 1.3 - 6 Feb 94
 Pop-up dialog must be dispatched via the mouse or <ENTER> or an
     <ALT> key. If you're typing, say in your word processor, when
     the pop-up pops, you'll get beeps from MailFlag so you'll know
     something has happened
 The 'MSMail Spooler' icon is now hidden when MailFlag is run prior
     to or without running MSMail
 A menu choice has been added to the MailFlag icon to run Mail
 MSMail now comes to the top when activated from MailFlag and it was
     not already running
 MailFlag always alerts for new mail, regardless of the state of MSMail
     (MailFlag used only alert if MSMail was an icon or not running)
 When MSMail is activated from MailFlag, the message list in the folder
     is highlighted (used to lose the highlight)

Ver 1.2 - 19 Sep 93
 Renamed to MailFlag ('MailCall' was in use by someone else)
 Fixed the GPF on system color change
 Added a 'Confirm Exit' configuration option
 Added capability to delete all types of messages from the pop-up

Ver 1.1 - 3 Aug 93
