MailFX is a notifier which replaces (or complete) the sound warning
of Mail OSX by a graphic animation (Quartz composition).

The installation and the use are very simple.

By default MailFX announces all the messages.

To personalize the notifications, use the MailFX rule
in the preferences panel "Rules"

You can act on the rule in two manners:

1. -Its position :
   
       If the MailFX rule is located in first position ALL the messages are announced.
     
   

   

   If you have rules which redirect certain messages (ex: Personal AntiSpam redirect Junk mails towards a folder "Spam"), move the rule of MailFX below, the messages concerned will not be announced.

- Its content :

Modify the rule to filter the notifications

IMPORTANT : Not modify the rule name.

The modifications made to the heading "Perform the following actions" are without effect

1. -The quartz animations can be modified (for those  which know Quartz composer). You can also create your owns animations by respecting size(314 x 256) and by avoiding the too heavy images which can saturate memory and slow down animation.
   

Subject your compositions to  false@ddomenet.com  (replace false by mailfx)

- An additional feature allows you (when you launch Mail at startup) to do it in hide mode. You indeed could notice that the checkbox “Hide” of “System preferences - Accounts - Login items” remainder without effect with regard to Mail. MailFX restores this function.
