I found I really missed the simplicity of just clicking on an icon or button once to check my email as I could in Classic, so I wrote this AppleScript to fill the gap.

I found I really missed the simplicity of just clicking on an icon or button once to check my email as I could in Classic, so I wrote this AppleScript to fill the gap. Put simply, OneClick checks your email for you and reports back to you the results - all with one use of the mouse. If you're on a dial-up connection, OneClick uses your selected settings to connect to the Internet then disconnects when it's finished. As well, the Mac OS X Mail client only provides the barest of feedback (a single audio cue). OneClick works with Mail to provide a useful dialogue box for feedback.

OneClick (Dial-up) is smart. If you haven't got Mail running, it first loads it. Then if you're not online, it dials and connects, checks for your email, disconnects and finally reports the results (and all with... one click!). If you're already online then it leaves the Internet connected, everything else is the same. OneClick Broadband skips the Internet check as it should always be available.

Here are some key features of "OneClick":
Can dial & disconnect from Internet.
Provides dialogue-box feedback.
Works over dial-up, networks and now shared modem connections.

What's New:
Added option to stay online after checking your email.
Added custom icon.
