    System Tray Mail Notifier?


    OK, I'm sure you all have an answer to this one.

    I would like a simple email notification device that sits in the System Tray and notifies me when I receive an email.

    It must be configurable to work with IMAP protocol. In this case, MobileMe.

    I have all my email addresses forwarded to my Apple MobileMe inbox. I use Thunderbird as my client on Windows. It has a system tray notifier but, Thunderbird must be running for it to work.

    I know of things like GMail Notifier but, I need a generic one I can set up for whatever IMAP account I want.

    I want it to look like it belongs in the Windows 7 system tray. I would like it to announce an email without Thunderbird running. I want to be able to click on it and have it launch Thunderbird.

    Any suggestions?

    Good morning. I have never used such a thing. I did a search and this one says that it is windows 7 compatible. Good luck to you!

    I can get Pidgin to do the same thing but, I don't have my IM running all the time nor do I want to. A nice stand alone tool like Gmail Notifier is what I'm looking for but not specific to Gmail.

    Mail Notifier wanted me to sign up for an "on-line account." No thanks.

    So sorry about that Bug. I click download and it seemed as if it was going to download without any problems. I did not continue with the dl.

    No worries. How could you have possibly known?

    Surely there has to be something like what I'm looking for. Figured I'd check here with the experts...

    Thanks. I've been googling too. I was hoping someone here had something they were actually using.
