E-Res-Q 1.3 - Mailbox Rescue

E-Res-Q (read “ee rescue”) is a very simple, portable POP3 mail reader. It enables you to selectively read and delete messages without having to download them all. It’s ideal for getting rid of large messages that clog up your mailbox or getting rid of spam messages without even downloading them.

This small program has proved very useful back in the times when most of us still had dial-up connections. It’s still a very useful utility for setting up quick access to your POP3 mailbox when you’re temporarily using someone else’s computer. The fact that it doesn’t require installation is a plus. You just download the zip file, extract the binary and run it, punch in your account settings and you’re ready to go!

If you’re a veteran E-Res-Q user who just came back here to download another copy, feel free to express your appreciation through a tiny PayPal donation by clicking the button below. Your donations will help with all the domain + hosting expenses I’ve had over the years for serving this completely free utility.



Heck, I might even get motivated to finally complete the 2.0 version I’ve been working on on-and-off almost for a decade! As a teaser, here’s a sneak preview of the development version which features saving multiple accounts and a “pipeline” mode for even faster access…

    Hi.
    I used this wonderful program SEVEN years ago (exactly from 15.11.2000) and…i use it also today!
    It’s the only things against spamming; it’s really simple to use, light and …fast!
    It isn’t necessary a future versions.
    Thanks

    It’s good to see the old face of E-Res-Q 1.3, keep on updating Ates :)

  6. Ates Goral Says:

    Arif: Unfortunately, there’s only a Windows version. But who knows; maybe some time in the future, I may come up with a newer version that’s built on a portable framework or something…

    Ates I’m quite sure you could come up with a linux version with a small effort! I’m glad you finally made this update about e-resq. Looking forward to the new version, keep good stuff coming :D

    i love the program and it does wonders but sometimes when you get up to 250mb it freezes up but it does wonders cleaning out thousands of e-mails at a time

    niye herkes ingilizce yazıyo, türk olmayanları anladık ama diğer arkadaşlara ne demeli? bi de ateş, hadi adı arif olan zat ingilizce yazdı, sen niye ingilizce cevap veriyon :)

  10. Ates Goral Says:

    mra: Çünki burası İngilizce içerikli bir blog :) Ayrıca, Arif müslüman adıdır. Yukarıdaki arkadaşın Türk olduğunu zannetmiyorum (özellikle soyadına bakınca). Verdiği site linkine bakılırsa, Endonezyalı olma ihtimali daha yüksek…
