Does XFCE 4.2 Mail Checker work w/ Thunderbird local folders?

pnellesen · 07-23-2005, 11:23 PM

Is there a way to have the XFCE 4.2 mail checker work with a Thunderbird "local folder"? I've done some searching on this and have come up empty. Currently I have the "mailbox" option in my Mail Checker settings set to the same folder as Thunderbird points to, but I don't get the color change when I get a new email, and I really have no idea if the mail checker is even doing anything. It DOES start Thunderbird when I click on it, however...

Thanks

(P.S. I only put this in this forum because I'm running XFCE 4.2 under Slackware 10.1...)

Could you tell me which xfce mail checker you're asking about? Didn't know xfce had one.

In XFCE 4.2, there's a utility in the panel called "Mail Checker" - it looks like an envelope:
