The functionality to check new messages is called biff. With the following configuration Mew sees how many new messages have arrived every 5 minutes.
(setq mew-use-biff t) |
If one or more new messages exist, the total number is displayed in the mode line.
The server and the protocol, which Mew checks, are decided according to ‘mew-proto’ and the "case" (‘mew-case’) on boot time.
With the following configuration, Mew beeps when the number of new messages changes from zero to one or more.
(setq mew-use-biff-bell t) |
To change the interval time of biff, set ‘mew-biff-interval’. Below is an example to set it to 10 minutes.
(setq mew-biff-interval 10) |
