I have a client who runs netscape 4.7 on a windows 95 platform. He seems to recall that at one time the Netscape Inbox icon was available on the desktop. Try as I may, I can't seem to get it on the desktop.
Is there any way to get the Netscape mailinbox icon onto the desktop?

Thanks

Create a new shortcut on the desktop with the following line as the Target:

"C:\Program Files\Netscape\Communicator\Program\netscape.exe" -mail

And Start In:
"C:\Program Files\Netscape\Communicator\Program"

Messenger is built into netscape.exe. So if you just add -mail to the end of the executable, you can open e-mail directly.

You should also change the icon to something else in netscape.exe to distinguish between the two. Right-click on the new shortcut --> Properties --> change icon --> etc.
