Check multiple mailboxes/maildirs for mail

历史

项目历史与用法

mailcheck is a small command-line utility for checking multiple mailboxes for new mail. The official homepage and upstream manpage document support for mbox, Maildir, POP3, and IMAP.

项目历史

The upstream manpage says mailcheck was written for Debian GNU/Linux by Jefferson E. Noxon, with copyright years spanning 1996, 1997, 1998, and 2001. POP3 and IMAP support is credited to Rob Funk.

The official 1.91.2 SourceForge release contains a compact C program, manpage, sample `mailcheckrc`, and Makefile. Its install target places the command under `/usr/bin` and the default config under `/etc`.

采用历史

mailcheck's adoption is traditional distribution packaging rather than a large upstream community. The input package-manager facts list Homebrew, Debian, Ubuntu, and Nix, and the official homepage links Debian package information.

使用方式

The manpage recommends invoking `mailcheck` from `/etc/profile` or a user-specific login script, with `-l` login mode respecting `~/.hushlogin`. It reads `~/.mailcheckrc` first and falls back to `/etc/mailcheckrc` when no user file exists.

Configuration is line-oriented: local mailbox paths or Maildir directories, plus `pop3:` and `imap:` URLs for remote mailboxes. Passwords are not stored in `mailcheckrc`; for POP3 and IMAP, the manpage says credentials come from `~/.netrc`.

为什么软件包爱好者会关心

mailcheck is package-nerd archaeology in useful form: a tiny C utility from the login-shell mail-notification era, still packaged because it has few moving parts and interoperates with old mailbox formats and `.netrc` credentials.

时间线

  • 1996: Earliest upstream copyright year in the manpage.
  • 1998: Additional copyright year and mailbox/network support lineage appear in the manpage.
  • 2001: Later copyright notice appears in the manpage.
  • 2007: SourceForge published the mailcheck 1.91.2 release tarball.

Related projects

  • The manpage points users to biff, mail, fetchmail, netrc, and ftp as related Unix mail and credential tools.
