Re: outlook express mail alert.

Take a look at Mail::Box::Dbx and Mail::Transport::Dbx to access your email, from there it's up to you on how you want to alert yourself and the frequency to check etcetera. . .

using the above modules in a perlTk daemon would allow you to send a popup window to the user.

I have tried to CPAN> install Mail::Transport::Dbx but just get error messages about nmake FATAL error G not valid??? So you may also have problems. I am sure it is because of the C library. The rest seems ok. If I could figure out what library and where to put it this might solve the problem.. Any Perl modules that can read Outlook Express without a C library?? Astro
