Hi.
Does anyone know of a way to add a "new mail" notification icon to the
panel/system tray under CentOS 6?
On CentOS 5, I used the "mail-notification" software package provided
[ ... ]
You might consider having your MUA do the notifying rather than having an
applet go check your inbox for you.
I'm mostly using thunderbird for e-mail, and it actually also supports
notification via pop-ups. But:
1. I think it's nice to be able to close the application completely
when not working on e-mail.
I hear you! ;)
2. "Global" popups are generally annoying/too obtrusive. A small icon
that changes state is much better.
Understandable.

I'm guessing this is what you've used in the past.
Actually, what I used on CentOS 5 was the below mentioned software.
Which is really the same as the one referenced above, I now notice ;-)
I've now managed to build my own rpm for this, by combining the last
source code release from the above, the spec file from the EPEL 5 source
rpm, a bit of trial, and let's not forget, a fair amount of error, too.
I'll try to attach the spec file...

Before that, i.e. on EL 4, I believe something else was included in the
main distro, but I don't remember what.
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/acls/name/mail-notification
Even though the package is listed it appears nobody has packaged it in EPEL
(for example).
http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/i386/repoview/letter_m.group.html
Well, it is actually included in EPEL 5, but not 6.
Not as simple, but you might consider building it on your system.
I tried both binary and source rpms from EPEL5, but it didn't work too
well. Actually, the problem wasn't mail-notification itself, but rather
eel2, which it requires. This used to be part of the main distribution,
but isn't any more. Binaries from past versions have dependencies that
are hard to resolve, and an attempt to rebuild from source rpm failed
with the below error messages. Maybe I can find away around this, but I
don't have time to try right now...

It isn't so common to receive email locally anymore, most people are
using
remote mail servers.
