What I'd like is to leave my mail on my remote imap server, but take a
peek and have display-time tell me if there is mail available.
Right now I use fetchmail to suck the mail in from a remote imap
server to my local machine. Then display-time works fine to show me I
have new mail. Problem is, I want to leave the mail on the imap
server because, for now, I can't access this machine from home.
So the plan is display-time peeks at the imap server and informs me if
there is mail. If I'm actually present and actually care, I start up
gnus and it grabs the mail.
Well, that's the plan anyway.
