popping mail

[Chris Peterson]

Hi all,

I've been doing some playing and I definetly love mutt.  Thanks to buddy and
Chris for their information.

Btw, since I believe this was brought up earlier, The default key to toggle
display of headers is a lower-case h.  So, if there is an "ignore *" line in
.muttrc, you can use the h key to display the headers of a message if you
want to see them for some reason.

Okay, so here is my question.

Currently I'm popping all my mail (from four accounts) so I can check it and
manage it in one place.  So, what would be the best way to do this in
gnu/linux?

I think I saw someone mention this a while back, but I'm feeling lazy.

I've also figured out how to get mutt to pop from one account and, from what
I've read, which isn't the whole man page, I am sure it can do all four.  My
question is, is this the best way to do this?  Is there a daemon that I can
run to do this for me so I can be notified of new mail without having to
have mutt up to hear about it?

Thanks a lot!
Chris
