is there something else I should be aware of?........different download
site? ........typo?
Instead of resorting to an older version of MailWasher (my current eMail
Manager) , any recommendations for:
- win98 (and w2k preferred)
- access to multiple email accounts
- delete from server
Thanks,

Hi tomZ,
Thanks for bringing this up.
The Cnet download page says <q> ePrompter 2.0 The latest version (SR16)
includes updates for Netscape, Juno, and Mail.com. Also, ePrompter has
removed ads and is once again freeware. </q>
However, I do *not* find the same statement on the ePromper site today.
I don't see any reference to registration requirements nor have I heard
registration requirements mentioned in ACF posts.
Did you complete the installation? If so, what registration information
did they ask for? Have you seen any ads?
I'm going to repost this post in the [PL] 2004 General Discussion
thread and put ePromper on the acceptable/unacceptable ballots - at
least until we learn more.
Susan

The website EULA http://www.eprompter.com/eula.htm is the same as
with download.
No. I canceled the installation.Did you complete the installation? If so, what registration information
did they ask for? Have you seen any ads?

Thanks, Susan.
I thought I'd give PopTray a try, and keep 'ye olde' MailWasher on
hand.
Cheers,

ePrompter contains no adware/malware from reading the installation logs
with Total Uninstall. It doesn't display any advertisement material and
it doesn't phone home either, as far as I can tell.
Thanks Jim. I'll give that a try on my Yahoo account(s).Jim said:Hi Tom - You might want to take a look at PopPeeper, here:
http://www.poppeeper.com Highly recommended. Handles Hotmai/MSN and Yahoo
as well as POP3 stuff.
