Popcorn is a lightweight and portable e-mail client for Windows.
Features:· Popcorn is a lightweight and portable e-mail client for Windows. · Works as a client/server application, reading mail "directly" from POP servers. · Send and receive mail using secure SSL encrypted server connections. (More details in the "Send and receive mail using SSL in Popcorn" section). · Ideally suited for "on the road" mail access, for scanning, reading and sending mail over slow connections. · Supports multiple account profiles, enabling you to read and send mail from any number of accounts. · Requires no installation, no data is saved locally other than a portable .INI file containing account information. · Ideal for cleaning up POP accounts, removing spam, unwanted mail, large attachments etc... · Immune to all forms of e-mail attachment and HTML viruses/scripts/trojans, because it does not directly support receiving attachments or viewing HTML. · Optionally supports viewing/saving attachments and HTML through external applications. · The built-in mail editor and address book enables you to compose and send new mail with or without file attachments, reply to, forward and re-direct received mail using SMTP or (E)SMTP with authentication. · Fits easily on a floppy or other portable (even read only) media, making it easy to carry around at all times. · Using the Mail Message (.eml) format, you can easily import mail items composed, saved or sent from Popcorn into other popular e-mail clients.
What's new: # New features: * Password prompting has now been implemented for the "Use incoming (POP) server username and password" SMTP send authentication method. #Bug-fixes: * Fixed a bug that caused some downloaded mail items to not show the correct status when they were only partially downloaded. * Fixed a bug that caused the All Profiles view not to appear when the "Get headers on startup" option was enabled. * Fixed some misc. usability issues with the All Profiles view caused by the change from a free floating dialog window to a docked view. #Other changes: * Better default values for Popcorn settings and account profiles when starting from scratch (no popcorn.ini file present). * Removed the All Profiles "You have new mail..." notification pop-up dialog. * Added a standard message box question mark icon to the application already running dialog making it look like a Windows MessageBox(). * Optimized a couple of message and attachment download routines.
