Okay, so this isn't exactly the best of Visual Basic, but it is programming. It's a simple little mail checker. but it's something that you might be able to use.
The point of Check M@il is to, quite simply, check your mail before you fire up your e-mail browser. The program uses standard VB 6.0 components, an OCX called Checkmail, and a timer.
Special thanks to Ari, at Microtech Labs in Indonesia, for the OCX.
