[Request] New Email Toast by Keikonium on 07-23-2006 at 09:52 PM
I was thinking... Plus! toasts open in the default browser (firefox in my case).
Sooo... would a script that notifies you on a new email be possible? A new email for the account currently signed in of course. For hotmail. One that when clicked would open up the inbox? The gmail notifier managed all of this, and its really great. Would it be possible to do with hotmail also?
Thanks

Well there isn't a API for accessing hotmail as far as i'm aware... But it is possible. But then again, I see little point in writing a whole new function for one that is already built into messenger, albeit with a browser limit.
I'm gonna wait for StuffPlug 3 and hope it has that feature

I meantioned it only because I was reviewing the stuffplug fourms (which I do like 4 times a day lol) and I got a gmail email. So I thought... hey, this would be cool.
It would be useful for right now, and for people who don't want to use stuffplug (
). But glad to know it should atleast be possible.
I agree that there isn't much point in writing a whole script for something that already exists, but its more of an ease-of-use thing 
.
I'll go off to review the gmail script, but I doubt I'll get anywhere lol
