Description
-----------

ExAlert is an add-in for Windows Messenger designed to inform a user
about new messages received in  his/her  mailbox  on  the  Microsoft
Exchange 2000 server. ExAlert works together with Microsoft Outlook.
When a new message is received  in  user's  mailbox,  the  Messenger
shows pop-up window with message sender's information.  Clicking  on
the notification window opens Outlook window with the new message. 


Installation
------------

Important! If you've got ExAlert not from our web page, but from
the other source (magazine CD or some software library), please
visit our home page - you'll probably find the later version;
usually, we release the updates about once a month.

To install ExAlert, just run the "exalert.msi" and follow the
instructions. You'll need to select the target directory
and the components to install.

MSI is the extension of the file for Microsoft Windows Installer.
It is installation and configuration service that ships as part
of the Microsoft Windows ME/2000/XP and available for other
operating systems on Microsoft site.
