| Summary : A mail checker client and the comsat mail checking server.
|
Description :
The biff client and comsat server, both included in this package, are
a legacy method of asynchronous mail notification. Although they
are still supported, most users use their shell\'s MAIL variable (or
csh shell\'s mail variable) to check for mail, or a dedicated
application like xbiff, xmailbox, or the GNOME mail check applet. If
the comsat service is not enabled, biff will not work and you will need to
use something else. You may want to install biff and comsat if you
would like to be notified when mail arrives. However, you should probably
investigate the more modern methodologies of mail notification instead.
