email notification tool

Our Rating: (Very Good!)

POP Peeper is a small utility that runs in your Windows system tray. It visually and audibly lets you know if you have email on any number of POP3 and IMAP servers as well as Gmail, Hotmail, Yahoo and other web mail providers. It allows you to preview the headers of your email, and view the messages. There is also support for file attachments, which allows you to view the name of the files. If you are checking multiple accounts, you can specify a custom color for each, making it easy to distinguish the messages. Message preview is quick and fully supports HTML messages. Using POP Peeper, you can quickly scan what messages are important enough to read, and which ones you want to delete without even opening your email client. A great little tool that works fast and efficient.

Pros: Flexible settings for multiple accounts; mail preview and reply options

Cons: No spam filtering
