NAME

   gnubiff - a mail notification program supporting GTK+ and GNOME

SYNOPSIS

   gnubiff [options]

DESCRIPTION

   gnubiff  is  a mail notification program that checks for mail, displays
   headers when new mail has arrived and allow to read first lines of  new
   messages.  It relies on the GNOME and GTK libraries but can be compiled
   and used with or without GNOME support. Supported protocols  are  pop3,
   apop,  imap4,  mh,  qmail  and mailfile.  Furthermore, gnubiff is fully
   configurable with a lot of options like polltime, poptime, sounds, mail
   reader, mailbox names, etc. and can also filter spam. Note that gnubiff
   is not a mail reader even if it offers the possibility of reading  very
   first  lines  of  new  messages. If you send some requests for specific
   features to be implemented, keep that in mind!

   -c filename, --config filename
