Publisher's Description

Mail Alert is an award-wining e-mail alert add-in for Microsoft Outlook. When new e-mail arrives, it will display a non-intrusive desktop alert containing essential information from the e-mail received. Now you can avoid the constant shuffle between work and e-mail, thus boosting your productivity. Want to reply to the incoming e-mail? No need to stop working and switch to your e-mail application; Mail Alert provides the most common actions directly from the desktop alert, such as reply, mark as read and delete.

Great application - love the ability to watch only certain folders and delete/mark messages from the alert.

After 4 years of using this the upgrade is now trial/pay. That sucks.

First of all Mail Alert works with Outlook 2000, XP, and 2003, but only Outlook 2003 has its own type of desktop alert. Regardless, Mail Alert provides many features over the desktop alert provided by Outlook 2003. Most notably, the ability to show a desktop alert for folders other than the default inbox, and the ability for multiple alerts. Mail Alert also provides many customizations for the alert window that Outlook does not provide.

Totally useless because office has its own notifier. 0 added value when using this one.

why take the look & feel of thunderbird? might as well switch .. ;-)
didn't test it, avoid using the outlook series for security reasons.

Seems to work only with e-mail items, news (discussions) are ignored.

Great little app....I like better than the built in desktop alert in Office 2003.

Might be good idea if one could perm delete a email from desktop...as a quick spam clean up tool.

Works great on Outlook 2000 and XP

It was about time someone came up with this. Outlook 2003 has this feature, but if you have an IMAP account, your default inbox is no longer what Outlook wants it to be, so you do not get alerts. I am still playing around with this thing, it looks good so far. Its a beta, so I give it a 4.

If you are constantly interrupted by email, Mail Alert IS A MUST FOR YOU! Outlook has a similar feature but it's not nearly as useful. Outlook can display a desktop alert BUT only for new mail in the default inbox. So lame! At work most of my email is routed by rules to different folders. Mail Alert will work no matter where new mail is delivered. From the desktop alert Outlook will only let you open the email. With Mail Alert you can configure buttons on the desktop alert to do things like "Mark as read", "Delete", "Mark as read and delete", "Open", etc. I get tons of email at work, most of which I ignore and delete immediately. With Mail Alert I don't have to switch over to Outlook every time a new mail comes in and don't have to worry about missing an important email. I love it!
