Hi,

  I figured this would be easy to find/do, but I've not managed it yet!
I'm looking for a very simple biff daemon that checks a mailbox
(preferably maildir, but IMAP/POP would do -- or even an external
application) and executes a command if mail is found.  I want to use
this in conjunction with osd_cat to display a message on my screen.

  Any ideas?  Thanks very much,

-lewiz.
