MailMaint for Windows is a simple POP3 Mailbox Maintenance application
that supports multiple POP3 mailboxes, allowing headers to be accessed,
messages to be read and deleted, and new email and replies to be sent.
Old headers are stored on the PC to minimise access time, but this
application is not designed as an offline mail reader. Whole messages
can be relayed to another mailbox, chosen from an address book.
MailMaints main purpose is deleting messages that have become stuck in
the POP3 mailbox and are not being properly deleted by your normal email
application. This typically happens when the mail headers are corrupted
or deliberately wrong (very common with spam email). But MailMaint will
also be very useful for those that need to access multiple mailboxes.
MailMaint is dial-up networking (RAS) aware, will open a connection if
required, indicates which connection is being used, and will ensure it
is closed down when the program is exited.
While MailMaint is normally installed under Windows with all the
settings kept in the system registry, it is may also be run from a floppy
disk, with all server settings and preferences saved on the floppy. This
will be useful for people that travel a lot and need to access POP3 mail
in a better manner than a web interface.
MailMaint is shareware, developed by Magenta Systems Ltd, in the UK,
and supports all 3-bit versions of Windows. Until registered, it is
only possible to access two POP3 servers, and its not possible to send
or reply to email. The unregistered copy still allows mail to be viewed
and deleted, similarly to earlier releases. Registration costs €10 (UKP,
including VAT), which is about US$15, with discounts for site licenses. |
