I believe xbuffy can do this, but I don't know if there is a debian package for it. It can monitor multiple mailboxes (or qmail Maildirs, once patched appropriately) and shows you he number of new messages. A click on it will also show the Subject lines of the messages. Unfortunately I can't rememeber where I got it, but a search should turn it up, and if it's not deb'd, it's pretty easy to compile yourself. Only thing I didn't like about it is it's a bit boring (asmail is so much sexier) and I couldn't get it to sit in the AfterStep Wharf. damon -- Damon Muller | Did a large procession wave their torches ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) | As my head fell in the basket, Network Administrator | And was everyone dancing on the casket...
