G-Mail Notifier.. by dom. on 06-20-2004 at 12:11 PM

Does anyone know of/could anyone create a G-Mail notifier?

Something that notifies you when you get a new email in your gmail account. Like the toast that comes up in Messenger when you get an email through hotmail.

It would be real handy, and would save randomly logging in to check your emails... :p

Anyone?

lol...gmail dont have pop3, so i doubt there is any way of checking....we dont know nothing till we know more


RE: G-Mail Notifier.. by dom. on 06-20-2004 at 12:59 PM

well there is a program that makes Outlook and thunderbird think gmail is pop3.. so gmail can be used in them... so why not a notifier? :p

thats pretty cool (the gmail tray) just wondering if its safe to use:S


RE: G-Mail Notifier.. by surfichris on 06-23-2004 at 11:30 PM

Yup, i've been using it for a while and i find it very helpful.

I'm looking into making my own version, to suit my tastes more but i havent got around to it yet.

it downloads your email from your gmail account to your computer, it's not a notifier.

The only problem I see in GTray is that it only loads in IE.

Can anyone make a Firefox version? ;)

yes, but the point of POP3 is to download your e-mails to your computer. dom. wants a notifier that tells him when he has got a new e-mail. That's not the same.
RE: G-Mail Notifier.. by EZTripps on 06-24-2004 at 02:03 PM

I am looking for the same... I love using Gmail, but it's kind of annoying having to check back randomly to see if you got new mail...


RE: G-Mail Notifier.. by bach_m on 06-24-2004 at 02:05 PM

RE: G-Mail Notifier.. by Sunshine on 06-24-2004 at 03:04 PM

I use Gtray now an noticed something dodgy.....when u click on a link in the msgplus tab on msn whilst its checkin for mail...it opens it twice (the url u clicked not Gmail) :(....any programmers dare lookin into that?

Noticed something else too: this prog changes ur default e-mailprogram :(
A choice to use the default browser would also be nice. Mhmm, i think i should e-mail the author ;)

RE: G-Mail Notifier.. by user13774 on 10-02-2004 at 03:48 PM

A potentially VERY good program is GMailer XP. But it is still in Alpha phase so I don't know if it's stable enough.
