TALKING E-MAIL (TM) is a Windows 98/95/NT4 program that notifies you when you've received an e-mail, and reads it to you. Using nothing more than your e-mail account and sound card, Talking E-mail's easy-to-understand voice will read aloud your incoming e-mails, whether they're in plain text, HTML or RTF formats. While there are a number of programs that let computers multi-task, Talking E-mail lets people multi-task. Without interfering with your other work, Talking E-mail will talk to you, letting you know who is trying to contact you, and what they have to say. You'll hear immediately if your incoming e-mail is important enough for you to interrupt what you're doing, or if you can respond to it routinely later. When an e-mail message arrives, an animated cartoon character pops up on the screen and starts reading the message.

Talking E-mail is highly customizable, allowing you to specify if you want to hear who sent the message, its subject, and how many lines of the message should be read. You can stop the cartoon character at any time, or keep listening while you are working. You can even launch your default e-mail program and reply to the message. Talking E-mail's rules system allows you to specify the behavior of the character and what he will say when a message arrives from a specific individual. A variety of animations, sounds, and other settings is available, adding fun and practicality.

Talking E-mail uses Microsoft Agent technology (TM) to achieve its natural-sounding, understandable voice quality. In addition to its entertainment value, Talking E-mail has some very practical uses. You can schedule Talking E-mail to check your inbox at any time interval, and have the program read your messages aloud, ensuring that critical e-mails are brought to your attention immediately. It automatically checks for your incoming mail, and makes it easy to hear from your friends and colleagues, without having to stop other activities.
