YellowMemo can be used as an in-house (or corporate) messaging system. Configuring multiple YellowMemo installations (computers) to point to the same network share allows multiple users to share notes. The notes appear on all the subscriber machines automatically.

  When a new note is created in the shared directory, it pops up on all the running YellowMemo computers that are subsribing to this share. When any of the notes change in the shared directory, that note will pop up on the user's screen. If that note is already showing, the note is refreshed, displaying its new content. If a note is deleted, it will disappear from the screen on all the subscribing machines.

   When someone deletes a memo, YellowMemo saves the memo into the 'Deleted' folder. By default, the 'Deleted' folder is not visible. One can view it by checking the 'Enable Deleted' check box on the main panel. The deleted Memo can still be used, and it is accessible under the same name as its original, with the small exception of the 'Deleted' string is pre-pended to its memo path. To restore a memo, one may use the 'Copy Memo' and paste facility and re-create the memo under any arbitrary heading.

  A note change is accompanied by a notification sound, which is highly configurable. YellowMemo can be set up to play any sound present on the system, and can be configured to use the system beep in a variety of manners.

   YellowMemo works with any standard Windows share, and any UNIX Samba (SMB) share. One can even configure YellowMemo to share the Memo directory with others on  the local machine.
