Procmail, to filter the incoming mail and mutt to read it. Now what i want to know is, is there some way so that i can make bash display "You've a new mail" everytime i log in? I dont store my email in default place (/var/mail) but in my home directory. Kindly please help. Thanks in advance, Masood Ahmed -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
