wmail is a Window Maker docklet watching your inbox, which is either a ordinary mbox or a directory conforming to qmails Maildir format.

It provides a nice little GUI displaying some useful pieces of information about your inbox (as many other nice wm-apps doing nearly the same thing...).

Per default it uses the $MAIL environment-variable to locate the inbox you are using, other mailing mechanisms like POP or IMAP are not supported - use a tool like fetchmail to retrieve POP- or IMAP-based mail.

What's New in This Release:
Support for comments in From-header added (by Juergen A. Erhard - thank you!)
Status field content recognition enhanced: now you can supply the content of a status field that markes your email as read. This is due to different behaviour of different mbox readers
pine seems using "ro" to mark a mail as read. The given value is substring-matched.
