desktopmail

Description:

This program is an electronic mail handler that works from the desktop,
unlike 'mail' already on the Newcastle info-server.  Will handle mail
folders from UNIX systems and has ability to reconstruct stuff
downloaded in parts from Newcastle info-server ready to be sent to Spark
or whatever.
  You can double-click on a message to send it to Edit, or drag it to
another text processor. Fuller instructions in !Help file.
  Needs MessageTrans 0.04 to be loaded or in System:modules.msgtrans

(It should handle stuff from lancs.pdsoft, but operation cannot be
guaranteed yet.)

utilbar - by Jens Ovesen.

Description from Jens:

This application makes a "title" for the iconbar from which you can do all
sorts of things, besides from getting information like free memory, free 
discspace, time etc. Highly userconfigurable. A 24-hours alarm, modeselection, 
and flashing caret is some of the things included.
I call it "UtilBar" for obvious reasons. See the !Help text included.
