Package: ion3 Version: 20050304-1-1 Severity: minor The statusbar by default checks $MAIL for mail; since it actually counts new mail rather than just looking at the access time of the file, the access time is updated which means that mail readers such as Mutt won't display the mailbox as having new mail anyway. I don't particularly like this, but I realize that I have to live with this if I want the statusbar, and indeed the indication on the statusbar is kinda neat.
However, it also checks for new mail even when ion is not actually active because a screensaver is running (xlock from the xlockmore package in my case). When I'm at work, I leave my laptop at home and log in via SSH. In this case, I don't have the indication from the statusbar and then it sucks that Mutt won't show the mail box as having new messages. IMHO the mail check script should not check for new mail when ion3 is not actually active because I'm running a screensaver. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.10-1-686 Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages ion3 depends on: ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-20 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libice6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-12.0.1 Inter-Client Exchange library ii liblua50 5.0.2-5 Main interpreter library for the L ii liblualib50 5.0.2-5 Extension library for the Lua 5.0 ii libsm6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-12.0.1 X Window System Session Management ii libx11-6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-12.0.1 X Window System protocol client li ii libxext6 4.3.0.dfsg.1-12.0.1 X Window System miscellaneous exte ii xlibs 4.3.0.dfsg.1-12 X Keyboard Extension (XKB) configu -- no debconf information -- Martin Michlmayr http://www.cyrius.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
