Introduction

gbiff2 periodically checks for mail and displays headers when new mail has arrived. It relies on the GNOME and GTK libraries but can be compiled and used with or without GNOME support. Supported protocols are pop3, apop, imap4, mh, qmail and mailfile.
Furthermore, gbiff2 is fully configurable with a lot of options like polltime, poptime, sounds, mail reader, mailbox title, etc.

gbiff2 is fully configurable via the GUI and options are saved within the .gbiff2rc file that is located in your home directory. For the GTK-only version, you can use an alternate configuration file with the '-c' option and you can skip the configuration process with the '-noconfigure' option.

To install gbiff2 with GNOME:
./configure --prefix=`gnome-config --prefix` --sysconfdir=`gnome-config --sysconfdir` --with-gnome
make
make install

To install gbiff2 with GTK only:
./configure
make
