Re: Message about arrived mail

hi,
   simple , add this line to your .cshrc (i.e, if u are on csh else do 
  the proper mapping to your shell)

  set mail=(60  /usr/mail/yourlogin  ~/folder1 ~/folder2)
this will inform u if mails arrive in any of u'r folders above
  
  but the problem here is after u delete a msg from that folder
   u are again intimated of a new mail in that folder
