Comment MailTicker feature... (Score 1) 446
I use The Bat! primarily for one reason - it's MailTicker feature.
I do not want to open my mail program to see what new mail has arrived, and the standard feature of small icon showing a flag is simply not informative enough.
The MailTicker is a semi-nonintrusive black small ticker-banner which becomes visible at the bottom of the screen (or whereever I want it to appear) when certain mails has arrived. It contains two lines: author and subject - just enough for me to see wether it is interesting or not.
The MailTicker could easily be enhanced to be even less intrusive and flexible, but unfortunatly I have not found any time (or projects) that could let me do that :)
