PocoMail gives
you serious power over your email, from instant review of your folders
via the unique Focus Box, to easy management of your contacts. You can
automate email processing in a myriad of ways, from Filters and Events
to easy-to-use PocoScripts. Instantly create AutoText snippets to use
throughout the program, and subscribe to your favourite RSS feeds and
Newsgroups to be read on demand or delivered with your email. All in a
secure package that puts you in control.
Why is PocoMail unique?
1.
Unlike some competing products, PocoMail doesn't use the Internet
Explorer component to preview your HTML messages. Instead it uses an
internal HTML viewer. 2. PocoMail does not understand VBScript or JavaScript, which are used to write email viruses. 3.
PocoMail will not run PocoScript, its own scripting language, from
messages you receive. While VBScript and JavaScript let a third-party
control your mailer, PocoScript was designed to let you better control
your mailer. You'll need to enable PocoScript on a message (to better
process it) before the script can run
