KBiff is a "biff" or new mail notification utility. It is highly
configurable but very easy to use and setup. It tries to combine
the best of the features of most of the "other" biff programs out
there.
KBiff supports all major mailbox formats: mbox (Berkely style),
maildir, mh, POP3, IMAP4, and NNTP.
KBiff is also part of the KDE project. Among other things, this
means that it has support for session management (it "remembers"
the last state it was in before you logged off) and can be docked
into the panel.

Postfix Release 20010228 Patchlevel 01 includes patches that were
sent to the list in the last month, some portability enhancements,
and updated documentation.
- The flush daemon complained when Postfix was deferring mail
for user@[ip.address], and aborted with a panic when deferring
mail to user@a.domain.name (one-letter subdomain name).
- The LMTP connection caching did not work for destinations that
start with inet: or unix:.
- The cleanup server stalled when mail exceeded the queue file
size limit by a small amount. The sender was not informed of
the file size problem and kept sending the mail repeatedly.
- Mail address headers with newline inside (comment) caused
Postfix to emit a backslash before the end of line.

The Mail::Box module is a modern mail-folder manager.
The modules are trying to keep messages stored in the mailbox file(s)
for as long as possible. Only if the user of a folder really needs
the content of a message, that message is read from file and parsed.
ChangeLog:
- added man page for abookrc (Alan Ford)
- notes are returned as optional data in mutt queries
- created a workaround for a mutt query bug
- new "extra_alternative" config option (Alan)
- added undo feature to editor
- FAQ
- macro updates
- fixed the cancel key behavior in editor
the static authentication modules.
This allows us to add two new flavors: ldap and mysql, which communicate
via the authdaemon.
Note that this requires users to rehaul their configuration scripts;
the INSTALL script should detect this and print out a message.
