EVE Technology Lab

If there is something already available that does this (which i am sure they must).

Ive developed an application in c# that will use your API to check new mails, the EveAI api says that read isRead function is not supported.

So the app I have written dowloads all the message ID's and stores them in an XML file, then after timed interval keeps checking, any messages not in the cached file are obviously new.. So the application then sends an email notification to me about the new messages. This works for multiple characters.

Before I continue working on the development (as it works for my needs), is there something already around for this or is this something people would be interested in? Our alliance contacts get notification every hour by email if they have received a new eve mail.

Thoughts appreciated, if there isn't anything available I will gladly release as open source. If there is, my Google skills are crap.
I use evemon to check character training etc but tends to slow our server down (not sure why), this also works as a light weight notification when skill training needsto be attended to.
