UMSMM is basically a clone of Sabot by Scott Ellis, adapted  for  use  with
UMS.

What UMSMM does is check your UMS messagebase for mail for a given user and
do  things  when  some unread mail is there or arrives. Checks for new mail
can be triggered either by watching a file or directory for  changes  using
the AmigaDOS notification mechanism or by waiting specific amounts of time.

What UMSMM always does is display  an  AppIcon  on  your  Workbench  screen
showing you the status of your private UMS "mailbox". If there is no unread
mail for you it displays an icon illustrating an "empty mailbox". If  there
are one or more unread mail messages waiting or something arrives, then the
icon changes to a "full mailbox" icon  with  the  number  of  new  messages
displayed, until you read your mail.

UMSMM can launch programs under three different circumstances:

o Mail arrives

o Mouse-Click on the AppIcon

o Files dropped onto the AppIcon

UMSMM is distributed under the terms of the "GNU General Public License".

History:

V1.0 + Initial release
V1.1 + Lost some memory when started from workbench
     + If the number of new mails changed, the new number was not displayed
     + Several cleanups
     + Two new icons (mt*.info) contributed by Ralf Garbade. Thanks Ralf!
V1.2 + Some memory wasn't freed under error conditions
     + MagicWB-Icons contributed by Jochen Borgmann. Thanks Jochen!
     + Added CLICKQUIT switch (suggested by Ibrahim Tertemiz)
     + If started via a project icon, the tooltypes of this one override
       the corresponding main tooltypes (suggested by Hartmut Goebel)
V1.3 + Now checking ViewAccess, too and removed checking of PostPoned flag.

Have fun!
