cgmail | A new shiny mail checker for the Gnome desktop | Mehr ...
This application intends to replace old mail checkers getting integrated correctly inside Gnome desktops. It requires dbus and notification-daemon support (org.freedesktop.Notifications service) for any kind of notifications and the gnome keyring to store user's credentials. Cgmail will pop-up on the top right side of your desktop and after providing every information requested for accessing each of your email accounts, it will start up sending notifications when a new mail hits one of your mailboxes. This package is similar to xbiff but has some more features like pop3 and gmail account's support.
