    Usage
--------------

I want E-Check to be small, smart, and cool. I try hard to design the
interface and wish everyone can easily use it without a manual (also,
because I am lazy to write one). So, I just describe briefly here. If
you still get problem on using it, sorry about that. Just give me a
mail.

There are hot keys for you to execute some actions. You can see them in 
the main menu. Popup menus are available for mail lists and tray icon. 
The buttons on the main window are dockable, you can put them anywhere 
you like.

The program displays fine on 1024x768 HiColor screen. At least 800x600
256 color is recommend. You can change the animation that will be 
displayed when new mails coming. The animation must be a 200x150 avi
file. There are two avi files included in the E-Check pack.

I don't know if E-Check can work with a modem because I don't have one.
If it's not convenance to use with a modem, please tell me.

Installation: Unzip it into a dir on your hard disk and make a short 
cut on desktop for it. Then, run it, that's all. Surely, you must set
up some options for the first time. They are nothing but common network 
settings such as IP address, login name, and password. You must fill
all the data need besides password. If you didn't enter a password in 
the option page, E-Check will ask you for it when E-Check access the
server for the first time, then the password will be remembered till
you turn off E-Check.

You can choose your own animation and sound files which you want to
display when there are new mails in your mail box. Also, you can assign
a E-Mail program and turn on the auto load function. After this, the
program will be loaded by E-Check to help you reply the new mails.

Uninstallation: I really hate some huge programs put a lot of trash
everywhere in my hard disk. So I make E-Check a "Garbage-free-ware".
All the files are put into the same dir and there is no need to install
any other DLL or something. If you want to uninstall it, just kill
the dir. But, I think it's really a good program, don't kill her ~~^_^~~

 Registration
--------------

E-Check is a shareware. You can freely try it within 30 days. After this,
you must paid for it. If you want to register, please write down your 
name, address, telephone number and E-Mail address. Then send the mail 
with USD $5 to me (see above for my address). I will send your register 
code by E-Mail as soon as possible.

--------------
  Suggestion
--------------

Bug reports are welcome, also any suggestion for improvement.

If you have some amazing animations or sound files want to share with
others, you can give me a mail. I will include them into the new version
if they are really cool.

I'd like to make a chinese version if enough people ask for it.
