Check your free Web mail accounts with Mail Monitor


Free Web mail sites such as Hotmail are useful, but running your browser just to check for mail can be a grind. Ristra's $20 Mail Monitor will check all your free e-mail accounts for new mail and sound a chime and flash a letter icon in your Windows tray when it finds some. You can set it to log into multiple accounts at scheduled times. It works with Hotmail, Yahoo, Excite, RocketMail, and Net@ddress. You'll still need to use your browser to retrieve mail, however. Download a trial version of Mail Monitor from FileWorld or from www.welcome.to/ristra.
