Overview

GAlert monitors your GMail account and notifies you of new incoming emails. Of course Google also has their GMail Notifier, but theirs isn't skinable.

I started this application right after I got my GMail account, but before I could complete it before GMail released an ATOM feed to monitor their email. I had to completely re-write it to function with their new ATOM service, and before I could finish GAlert, Google came out with their own Notifier. I decided to finish it anyway.

I created a few basic skins, which are ultra simple to create. I'm looking for a few people who are interested in creating some skins - If I like them, I'll bundle them with the application.

Features

Easily monitor your GMail account.
Easy access to your GMail account, simply double click on the icon in your systray.
Skins - Easily create your own skins.
Written in 100% C#.

Requirements

You must have a GMail account, a Windows machine and the .NET Framework 1.1.

If you do not have it, you can get the .NET Framework here FREE.

Just a suggestion.
Would it be hard to have it remember your login credentials between uses?
I find the program great (actually, better than any other GMail notifier) but the fact that each time I open my computer I have to re-enter my creds is a bit annoying.

If you make the source freely available, I can try to figure out how to do this eventually...but I understand if you don't want to give out your source code.

Thanks,
Olivier
