What is CHECKMAIL?

Proboard lets the user check for personal mail and files with menufunction 22.
This works fine if you don't have to many areas and the area are not saved as
JAM areas. Otherwise it can take a while to check for new messages.
Checkmail let's you check some individual areas for new personal mail. Newmail
found for the user is marked. Checkmail gives the user the option to read
these marked messages at once, or read them later.




How to install?

Just make a menu entry 60 (Proboard PEX) somewhere in the top menu. In the
dataline enter the name of the PEX, that is CHKMAIL and give all areas you
want to check as paramter after this PEX name. For example:

Function : 60 - Run Proboard SDK File
Data     : CHKMAIL 1 10 5

This example checks the areas 1, 10 and 5 (in this order) for new personal
mail.

Furthermore copy the files CHKMAIL.ASC and CHKMAIL.ANS to your proboard
TXTFILES directory. Their purpose is to inform that CHKMAIL only checks some
areas and not all areas for new personal mail.



C-Source included

The C-Source for this very simple program is included in this package. So
don't ask me to change colors or write an INI to read specific colors. Just
change it in the source yourself! You may distribute this source as you wish
and use parts of it!




Just enjoy!
