POP Peeper is an email notifier that runs in your Windows taskbar and alerts you when you have new email on any of your accounts. Send email directly from POP Peeper with spell checking and use the address book to email your frequently used contacts. A powerful AntiJunk system will clean up your inbox so you won't be distracted by new email only to discover that it's spam. POP Peeper allows you to view messages using HTML or you can choose to safely view all messages in rich or plain text.
POP Peeper can be run from a portable device and can be password protected. Many notification options are available to indicate when new email has arrived, such as sound alerts (configurable for each account), skinnable popup notifier, voice notification and more. POP Peeper also implements standard security measures including SSL/TLS and OAuth2 (Gmail, Yahoo, Outlook).

What's New
- New Toast options are available to specify the scenario (e.g. auto-dismiss and how long): Tools / PPtweaker / Toast notifications
- Fix: SSL will fall-back Security Level for servers that don't support OpenSSL v3.5 standards (e.g. shaw.ca/rogers)
- Fix: Accounts as folders would report "Folders will be listed after a mail check" which was misleading; text has changed
- Fix: A top-level shortcut was being created in the Start Menu due to Toast notification support; this has been moved to a POP Peeper subfolder and an option is provided to disable it (with consequences)
- Fix: If "hide read" was enabled and you marked a message as read belonging to a folder, that message (and other read messages) were removed until the list was refreshed
- Fix: Updater would report a "update available" notification for "missing files" (e.g. if user did not install AntiJunk); the notification will no longer appear, but missing files can still be installed via Tools / Install Updates
- Fix: Updater will no longer report an "update available" for Updater
- Fix: Cleanup for some Gmail/Oauth issues if subscription isn't active/trial
- Fix: WatchDog was set to "restart manually" regardless of relevant option specified in PPtweaker
- Troubleshooting: Can force use of old IE browser instead of WebView2/Edge (PPtweaker / Troubleshooting)
- License files can be deleted from within POP Peeper (Ctrl+Shift+Delete in Activation window); this is primarily for out-versioned Pro license to prevent prompt at startup
