What is OneClick for Mac

OneClick checks your email for you and reports back the results - all with one click of the mouse.

If you're on a dial-up connection, OneClick uses your selected settings to connect to the Internet then disconnect when finished. If your dial-up connection is dropped OneClick automatically re-dials, as many times as it takes (up to 10 tries - although this can be changed), to establish a connection! Aswell, the Mac OS X Mail application only provides the barest of feedback (as single audio cue). OneClick works with Mail to provide a useful dialogue box for feedback. The ability to dial & disconnect from the Internet while checking your email via Mac OS X Mail is unique OneClick.

What's new in OneClick

Version 1.6.2:

Now works with AirPort! Since much of the connection process is managed by the Base Station, OneClick must relinquish some control when using AirPort. For this reason, the Internet Connect window remains open - so you can easily select disconnect should there be a dailing problem. OneClick auto senses what type of connection, wired or wireless, you are using.

Please rename the thing! Although OneClick isn't around for a couple of years now, it's a bad idea to name a simple AppleScript this way. A lot of people are still searching for a rebirth of the true OneClick

Re: Schmelding's comment. OneClick does not claim to be a replacement for an email client. In itself it is not trying to check email - it works *with* Mail - I think most users would prefer that. However, Mac OS X & Mail have some gaps and OneClick fills a few of them - and quite well I believe. For dial-up users OneClick is especially useful. No more mousing to go on & off-line. One click and walk away. I'd call that very practical.

Development of the old OneClick INIT (for Classic) is dead. The developer's website has gone, and they have no point of contact. The only website that referenced it in detail that I could find has not itself been updated in over five years - and no email contact there either. Consequently, since my OneClick has a completely different use, is for OS X only, and unlike the old one - is being supported, I'll hold on to the name for now.

yeah by the way... pick a new name for your program... oneclick was and old macro program on os 9... maybe still around today... but that name is already taken

"A" for effort, but it's impractical. If this was a stand-alone email checker that would be one thing, but the fact that it has to launch Mail.app defeats the purpose of being a small email checker app.
