Summary:
C: Mail notification pop-up with configurable message scans
Description:
C: >-
<p>
Xlbiff presents enough information to tell you: Is this new mail worth
reading right now? And it stops distracting you once you decide.
</p>
<p>
Xlbiff waits in the background, monitoring your mailbox file or IMAP
server (or running your custom check-mail script). When a new message
arrives, it invokes the MH scan(1) command (or your custom
mail-scanning script) and pops up a window with the output (typically
the From and Subject line of each new message). If more mail arrives,
xlbiff scans again and resizes its preview window accordingly.
</p>
<p>
Clicking the left mouse button anywhere in the window causes it to
vanish. It will also vanish if the mailbox becomes empty. Xlbiff
stays out of your way when there is no new mail and pops up only
when something requests your attention.

<p>
mailbox-preview is a command-line program
that peeks at an IMAP mailbox and uses scan to display a summary,
one line per new message. Local mailboxes are also supported:
Maildir directories and any single-file format scan supports
(mbox and MMDF). Use mailbox-preview stand-alone on the command line
or as the back-end of xlbiff.
