Ya know, I don't have the ability (I'm just learning how to *use* X properly, much less program for it), but I was thinking it mustn't be too difficult to add something that'll resynch the folder when it's iconified & deiconified. (Or resynch it when you close it, then when it opens have it go and check for new mail.) > (I'd love to use XBiff, but my mail comes into a machine that > doesn't have X on it). Huh? I don't understand .. how can you read it if it comes in on another machine? If you're NFS mounting it, biff will work.
