WORK WITH E-MAIL

E-mail features of the program now is only checking for new messages arrival. So far as Runner is the task planner, e-mail service was oriented to execute command (for example, to launch mail reader), not to inform user. But using the instruction me it can be also.

Runner works only with POP3. It can connect to server and get count of messages from it using built-in instruction cb. When it execute first time, Runner only get starting message count, to compare it with next values. On next executions of the instruction, new value is compared with previous and, if it is different, defined command is executed. This features most usable in LANs, but also can be used with dial-up connections. When the Runner is connected to POP3-server, small icon ( ) is placed on SysTray. If you cancel dial-up connection, all next executions of the instruction cb during current session will be invalid. Reload Runner to restore normal state. If the Runner can not connect to server or other errors are occured, message "Can't get messages count" will be displayed.

Besides, using independent program Sender Runner can be send messages automatically. About the Sender see Sender page
