Corral your email with ePrompter

If you're like a lot of people these days, you have at least two email addresses. And you probably have more than that. (Personally, I've got five.) It can be a pain to keep track of all of them.Enter ePrompter, a free Windows app that will monitor all your web-based and POP3 email accounts (up to 16 accounts) and notify you of new messages at regular intervals. ePrompter also lets you compose, forward, and reply to emails without having to visit the actual webmail site or open your mail client.

The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...
