something like kbiff under gnome

Hi!

So far I have used kde and kbiff, but now I am changing to gnome. Is there anything similar to kbiff under gnome? What I want is a email-notifier, that can pop up a window, if a new email comes in. The built in email-notifier by gnome does not (or I have not found out how) do this - it just changes the displayed text. Moreover the notification programme should be in the panel, which does not work with kbiff if run under gnome.

Thanks for any suggestions.

I dont use gnome but...
The tool you want comes with gnome.
Just play with the items you can add to the panel, and I bet you'll see it

I know that there is an "email-notification"- button in the panel under gnome. However it does not pop up windows when new messages arrive, or I just don't know how to tell it that it should pop up some window. Can anyone tell me how to do that, please?

Also in inbox monitoring what is needed then right click on panel->add to panel->internet->Inbox Monitor
