snakeNet Mail Checker is a small GNOME screenlet to check mails from an IMAP server w/o SSL. It displays new mails and can open the standart mail client. Mail client, check timeout and usage of SSL are configurable.
IMPORTANT: The snakeNetMC depends on the Croatoan-lib which can be downloaded at http://snakenet.org/croatoan for free (open source).
About Screenlets:
Screenlets is the name of both a set of independently-developed widget applications and the widget engine which runs them. The engine runs primarily on X11-based compositing window managers, most notably the Compiz (under Linux) architecture.
Until 0.0.14, screenlets were exclusively scripted in Python and drawn in SVG. Afterward, support was added for web widgets (widgets which are written in HTML, JavaScript and CSS, similar to widgets for Apple Inc.'s Dashboard).
