NotifyMail is a system extension (or application) that listens for a finger connection. When
it receives the connection (for the appropriate user), it will notify you of new email. This can be done by having QUALCOMM's Eudora, Claris's Emailer or Intercon's TCP/Connect 2.0 check your mail, displaying a dialog box, playing a sound, displaying a neat mailbox window or running any file, including AppleScript scripts.
Please read the file Installation Instructions BEFORE installing NotifyMail.
Note: Users of previous versions should record their registration names and numbers, and then remove their NotifyMail Preferences file before installing this version.

NOTE about TSM Fix Folder:
The TSM Fix that is included with NotifyMail is useful is you have the NotifyMail window turned on. Due to a bug in the operating system, sometimes clicking in the window doesn't do anything. This extension by Matt Slot fixes the problem. Check out the README in the TSM Fix folder for more information.
NOTE about appe<->APPL AppleScript applet:
This has been provided for your convenience to easily change NotifyMail's file type from 'appe' to 'APPL' so that you can double click it if you are using a SLIP/PPP connection.
•Added direct support for Emailer by Claris and TCP/Connect II 2.0 by Intercon.
•Put NotifyMail Window back into main code.
Changes from 2.5.2
•Bug fixed that prevented dynamic IP addressing to function.
