| Use system beeper for sound notifications |
Use the system beeper instead of sounds (appropriate if there is no soundcard). The beeper sounds differ depending on message priority.
High tone can be set for high-priority messages; low tone can be set for low-priority
messages. Also, sound duration may depend on message priority (the higher priority
is, the longer the sound would be). |
| Do not show more than one new message |
LanTalk.NET will not show each new message automatically, only the first one ( until you'll mark new message as read ). |
