Wmail is a Window Maker docklet that monitors your mailbox, whether it's a traditional mbox or a Maildir that meets qmail's standards.
The program provides a simple and intuitive GUI that displays useful information about your inbox. Although there are other WM apps out there that do the same thing, Wmail is a reliable and user-friendly option.
One important thing to note: Wmail uses the $MAIL environment variable by default to locate your inbox. It doesn't support other mailing mechanisms like POP or IMAP. If you need to retrieve mail from a POP or IMAP server, you'll need to use a different tool such as fetchmail.
Despite these limitations, Wmail is a solid choice for anyone looking for a simple and effective way to monitor their email inbox.
In this latest release, several new features have been added, including support for comments in the From-header, as well as enhanced recognition of status field content. This allows you to mark your email as read, even if your mbox reader behaves differently. Additionally, the program now offers substring-matching functionality, which is helpful when using pine to mark a mail as read.
Overall, Wmail is a reliable and easy-to-use monitoring tool for your inbox. With its latest updates, it's become even more versatile and efficient for everyday use.
