Subject: pop up box nitification

I have a 486/66mh with windows and I was wondering if it is possible to
create a pop up box system with PINE so that I know when I receive new
messages (via a little message showing up on my screen, or pressing a key
combo that tells me whether I have new messages.)  Other mail systems I
have used have this feature, but I can't seem to find it on PINE.  Is
there a way to configure it to do that, or software that will facilitate
that?

Thank you.

it depends on how exactly you're getting your mail, but when my new mail
comes in, a little highlighted line appears at the bottom of the screen
and tells me.

I don't know anything about PCpine or xpine, though...

Krystal,

I am running basically the same type of system as yourself.  I have not
come across any 'pop up box' but if you have a sound card you will get
an audible BEEP when new mail comes in.  You will also get a highlighted
message at the bottom of the screen telling you new mail.

In PC-Pine you have a beep with the new mail.

If the PC-Pine window is minimized, a small "Pine symbol" arises in the
right side of the process line, when new mails comes.

unix pine (or at least pine on a linux workstation, if you are working at
the workstation and not remotely :)  )

will beep, too..except that I turned it off because it was annoying my
cow-orkers :)
