a mail question

Hi,

     I don't know about maildir style files, but if you use bash, and if
bash is notifying you when you have mail, then check out the MAILPATH
variable.  It should do everything you need.




          HTH.

The reason I want to have this functionality is so that I could find out if there is mail for user2 without having to login as user2, since I mostly do all my none-root work on the box as user1. Thanks in advance for any help.
