New: mail/xbuffy



Hi all,

I'm on a number of mailing lists, and I sort my mail using
procmail into several inboxes.  I find this little xbiff-like
program extremly useful.  The port (mail/xbuffy) comes in a
default (athena) and a motif flavor.  I had problems getting it
to compile properly with Xaw95 and neXtaw on amd64 and might
come back to these later.


xbuffy: xbiff-like program for multiple inboxes

DESCR:
    This is xbuffy, an X program designed to watch multiple mail
    folders for new mail.

    By default, it shows the name of your standard folder for
    incoming mail and the number of unread messages in a simple box,
    but it can be made to keep track of several more folders.

    Left-clicking the the box of a folder pops up a summary window
    showing From: and Subject: lines of the unread messages within.

    It can also be made to launch an email application, such as
    mutt, when you click with button 2 on a mail folder box.

    This is a very handy tool for people that sort incoming mail
    into several mail folders using e.g. procmail.



The port may be fetched from here:

Tested successfully on amd64 and i386.


Regards,
Andreas
