*** Read about msnpass.info and msn-blocked.com scam ***
msnpass.info is a scam Web site that sell my MessenPass software through the SMS payment system of Allopass company.
This Web site get a large amount of traffic by sending fake instant messages from msn-blocked.com Web site
msn-blocked.com is a nasty spamming Web site that ask the user to type his user/password of MSN, and them send a fake invite message to all his contacts that invite them, in the name of the innocent user, to visit msn-blocked.com Web site.
After visiting msn-blocked.com, the users are also sent to msnpass.info Web site, that offer them to purchase my MessenPass software through the payment system of Allopass company.

Using the Mail PassView utility
This utility is a standalone executable. It doesn't require any installation
process or additional DLLs. Just run the executable (mailpv.exe) and watch
the list of your email accounts.
You can save the accounts information into a text file or copy them to the
clipboard.
You can also save the email accounts information by using the following
command-line options:
|
/stext <Filename>
| Save all email accounts into a regular text file.
| |
/stab <Filename>
| Save all email accounts into a tab-delimited text file.
| |
/scomma <Filename>

| |
/sverhtml <Filename>
| Save all email accounts into HTML file. (vertical)
| |
/sxml <Filename>
| Save all email accounts into XML file.
| |
/sort <column>
|
This command-line option can be used with other save options for sorting by the desired column.
If you don't specify this option, the list is sorted according to the last sort that you made from the user interface.
The <column> parameter can specify the column index (0 for the first column, 1 for the second column, and so on) or
the name of the column, like "Email" and "Name".
You can specify the '~' prefix character (e.g: "~Email") if you want to sort in descending order.
You can put multiple /sort in the command-line if you want to sort by multiple columns.
Examples:
mailpv.exe /shtml "f:\temp\pass.html" /sort 2 /sort ~1
mailpv.exe /shtml "f:\temp\pass.html" /sort "~Application" /sort "Name"
| |
/nosort
|
When you specify this command-line option, the list will be saved without any sorting.
|
Notice: If the filename contains one or more space characters, you must
enclose it with quotes ("").
Translating Mail PassView to other languages
Mail PassView allows you to easily translate all dialog-boxes, menus, and strings
to other language.

A file named mailpv_lng.ini will be created in the folder of Mail PassView utility.
