linking to outlook express inbox in litestep jdesk module?
Monday, August 26, 2002 by VertigoOne | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
hey.
i just downloaded [[czar]'s horizontal theme, and its wicked stuff so far. the only problem i can see is that he set up the desktop email "Unread: #" link for pop3 accounts only, which wont work for my hotmail account. now, i use outlook express as a hotmail gui anyway, so all im wondering is, how do i change the link to one that shows how many emails are in my downloaded inbox, and goes to my inbox when clicked?
cheers!

i don´t think this is possible. Hoitmail uses a proprietary format and Microsoft does not document this, what makes it extremely hard for coders.

i am not using Outlook. this would be possible if Outlook writes the stuff you want to read into a text file, so label.dll can read it.

or is there another way?
also, is there a way i could put the number of new messages downloaded into my inbox, in a variable?

as i said above, if Outlook writes that info into a text file (TXT, LOG, INI, HTML or whatever) label.dll can read it.
