Hi,
I was wondering does a program exists that gives you a pop up when you receive email as Google Mail user?
Or maybe is there a setting I didn't see..
Or you could use any number of e-mail clients (Microsoft Outlook, Mozilla Thunderbird, Eudora) and set it up with your gmail account and turn on the New Mail Notification.
That's what I do. I prefer Thunderbird. Easy to set up (directions are in the Settings menu on your Gmail mainpage) and very efficient.
