    The MailFlipz browser plug-in package includes browser plug-ins for both Internet Explorer (IE) and Firefox, as well as our special MailFlipz desktop inbox!

    The MailFlipz browser plug-ins automatically check your MailFlipz mail for you whenever you check your Gmail, Hotmail, Yahoo, AOL, or other webmail account, and let you know if you have new MailFlipz mail in your MailFlipz desktop inbox!

    To install the MailFlipz plug-ins for either IE or Firefox or both, simply download the zip file here, unzip it, and follow the installation instructions on your screen. Installation is quick, easy, and takes less than two minutes!

    You can choose to have the plug-ins active for both IE and Firefox at the same time, or just for one or the other. And you can always change your preferences by simply running the program again!

    The MailFlipz browser plug-ins package is by far our most popular MailFlipz reader. Download the MailFlipz browser plug-ins with Desktop Inbox zip file here.
