qmail and Mail Notification

Post by Junior Squi » Tue, 07 Aug 2001 20:43:06



Is it possible (re: without much fuss) to get a mail notification after login?
I'm using qmail and the ./Maildir/ format.

thanks

I do not know if this solves your problem, but I have a file .qmail with
following contents:

./Maildir/
|qbiff

Furthermore I add 'biff y' to my .bashrc file. That inform me every time
a mail arrives.

HTH,

1. Mail Notifications, Solaris 2.5 Mail 1.01, Xbiff

What a  pain in the ass.  I am running Solaris 2.5, I have this nice
dashboard with a Mail icon that pops up whenever new mail arrives; but, the
second the mail checks for new mail it resets the icon even if I haven't read
the mail yet.  I want the icon to stay up until I have read all NEW email.

I tried using Xbiff and elm, but the same thing happens.  The second elm
retrives the mail, my xbiff flag goes down.  Is there anyway to avoid this?
