Mail Display! (Download)
Wouldn't it be nice if you could screen out any unwanted email that is about to infiltrate your Inbox, before you retrieve it?
Well now you can. POP3 Scan Mailbox is the email equivalent to the 'call display' feature you may have on your telephone. It acts like a 'filter' that you may already be using, to purge unwanted junk mail. The difference is that you can quickly see the subject, the first few lines and who is sending the mail, before you download anything.
One of the advantages over the usual filters available in most email software, is that you won't accidentally delete/filter any messages you really want, since you can preview them first.
