Hi i dont ue a hotmail accont so when ever i want to check my emails i have to open outlook and minimize it.
But it does my head it LOL !! :devious:
So i was thinking if it could be put in my system tray anyways (bottom right corner) this way it would check for emails by it self, as its still running in my tray, but its not on my desktop (minimized).
Hope you can help, thx ;)

In case you use Outlook instead of Outlook Express, there is a way to set it up to minimize to system tray... ( http://www.winguides.com/registry/display.php/955/ )
If the case is strictly for Outlook Express, there is a program by Shell Toys that allows you to minimize any application to the system tray... ( http://www.shelltoys.com/minimize_tray/minimize_to_system_tray.html )
Wadever Nicho was right, you should try reading more carefully, just in case you want to help out someone :)

I think that MailWasher can do that work for you.And it supports non hotmail accounts.

Good all done :)
VF Mailwasher is intended to clean up and filter your emails, not allow you to store them or reply to them, etc...
Wadever and you did well wanting to help, but it's more appreciated when you've tried after knowing what he or she are asking for help on.

Outlook express is real lame. I would suggest using mozilla thunderbird, it's a real slick email client, plus you can set it to check the mail server as often as you want.
www.mozilla.org, while you're their you may as well get firefox. That browser is tha ish!

Maybe, but when one asks for help on a certain program in a certain way, personal preferences don't really count :>

. . . mailwasher
. . . outlook
Well since other software had been mentioned instead of outlook express I just wanted to give another alternative which could solve his problem, hence thunderbrid. Plus you have to admit outlook express really isn't a fully functional email client.
