                     Notify Program for Microsoft Mail
                              Copyright 1992


WHAT IS NOTIFY?

    Notify is an add-on to Microsoft Mail which displays a dialog box on
    the screen when new messages arrive.  Rather than displaying an
    individual dialog box with each new message, a single dialog box is
    displayed with a counter of how many new messages have been received.
   
    This version of Notify includes the option to transfer directly into mail.

    Notify is comprised of two programs.  NOTIFY.EXE is the actual program
    that notifies a user of new mail.  NTFYCTRL.EXE is a program (run
    under Microsoft Mail) which allows you turn the new mail notification
    on or off.

INSTALLING NOTIFY

    1.    Copy NOTIFY.EXE and NTFYCTRL.EXE to the MSMAIL or Windows
          directory.

    2.    To install the notification message, Add the following lines to
          the MSMAIL.INI file (or SHARED.INI):  
    
          [Custom Commands]
          T1=3.0;;;;APPEXEC.DLL;NOTIFY.EXE;0010000000000000;;;;       

    3.    To allow users to change the option of receiving this message,
          Add the following line to the [Custom Commands] section:

          T2=3.0;MAIL;More Options;10;APPEXEC.DLL;NTFYCTRL.EXE;;;;;;

          (For more information, read the Technical reference manual that
          comes with MS Mail.)
