1 This plugin is used to notify the user when a new mail arrives. There are
2 several ways to do this. One is to play a sound (currently a WAV, SWF or MP3
3 file) through the browser whenever the user has unseen messages flagged in the
4 left window pane. There are options available (on the options page of course) to
5 disable this feature for each user, and to select different media files from the
6 users local computer. The default is that this is NOT enabled, so you'll need to
7 go to the options menu to turn it on first! There are also options to show a
8 popup window via JavaScript.

10 Plugin options are visible only when Javascript is enabled or detected by
11 SquirrelMail JavaScript detection functions.
