Mail Notification
 Mail Notification
monitors your mailboxes for new mail.
It works with system trays implementing the
freedesktop.org System Tray Specification, such as the GNOME
Panel Notification Area, the xfce4
Notification Area and the KDE
System Tray.
Its user interface is deliberately kept simple and
straightforward.
However, advanced users are catered for with ways to
run
commands in reaction to events, customize the popup buttons, obtain a
XML message list, modify the appearance of the application, etc.
When
a mailbox supports it, Mail Notification listens for changes reported
by the mailbox rather than polling it periodically. This mode of
operation provides immediate notification of changes and reduces the
system and network resources used by Mail Notification.
