Is there any way to show new messages but with text, I mean instead of this "1 new message" to look like this "one new message"
I appreciate any help!

Re: Mail Config
Hello czar86, and welcome to the forums!
One way might be to use a Substitute line on whatever Measure is returning the unread count.
That page of the manual: http://rainmeter.net/cms/Measures-GeneralSettings
Basically, like so:
This method can start to break down when you get higher, multi-digit numbers though. I'd play around with it and see how it goes.
Hope that helps!

Re: Mail Config
Thanx for the welcome!!
So if my meter says:
[Number]
Meter=STRING
MeasureName=MeasureNumber
X=16
Y=5
FontColor=ffffff
FontSize=15
FontFace=Swis721 Cn BT D-Type
StringAlign=Center
StringStyle=BOLD
AntiAlias=1
Text="%1" --------------> (this is the one that keep the count and print the number)
Where should I use substitute?
Thanx in advance

Re: Mail Config
The substitute has to be applied to the measure, so you would add the Substitute line under the [MeasureNumber] section.

Re: Mail Config
It would be the same concept
Substitute="2011":"Two Thousand Eleven"
Substitute="2011":"Two Thousand Eleven"
I have three rules when I'm trying to help you.
- Don't get mad when you don't understand something
- Be VERY specific with what you ask for.
The more specific you are, the higher the quality of support you receive. - Do not just copy and paste what I put in examples and come back saying it doesn't work.
It does work, but I purposely left blanks that you need to fill for your specific needs.
