How can I check for new mail w/o going into pine?
Again, because the mail isn’t stored on a “local” file system to the login servers, this doesn’t happen automatically. If you would like to have it happen for you, though, you can add this line to your “.login” file: imapcheck -v This will not only tell you if you have new mail, but also how many new messages you have waiting for you when you run pine. For The Workstations at NUBS Computing Resource Site, there is also a program called “xmailbox” that should put a mailbox with the number of new messages in your mailbox below it, and will check your mailbox for new mail on a regular basis. To run this, just type: xmailbox & at a unix prompt, while at the console of one of the NUBS work- stations. • 2.3.4. How can I use PGP to ensure the privacy of my email? Get PGP, compile PGP, and run PGP… Otherwise, if you’re not quite that paranoid, PGP-2.6.2 is on the login servers in /usr/um/bin and /usr/um/pgp-2.6.2. Check it out. • 2.3.5.
