FirstClass includes a mail notification feature that lets you know you have received mail in either of the following situations: 
 
•       you are not connected to a server 
•       you are not currently working with the FirstClass client. 
For notification to work: 
 
•       you must use a TCP/IP- or UDP/IP-compatible network where your server uses UDP port 810 
If you are unsure whether this is the case, check with your administrator. 
•       you are currently connected to this network 
•       notification has been activated 
•       the settings files for which you want notification to work are all in FirstClass' Settings folder 
•       the FirstClass client is currently running. 
FirstClass lets you know you have new mail in one of these ways: 
 
•       it opens a notification popup, if you are currently working with the FirstClass client, but are not connected to the server that received the mail 
•       it animates the FirstClass icon, if you are not currently working with the FirstClass client (Windows) 
•       it uses your operating system's standard notification manager, if you are not currently working with the FirstClass client (Mac).  |
