An obscure one...

[Rob Hudson]

Anyone know how to stop Linux from issuing the little messages like 'You
have new mail in /var/spool/mail' at the command prompt?  Is it
configurable?  On my system, I'm using gkrellm, so I know when mail
comes in.  The command prompt message is only a slight annoyance, but if
I can turn it off, I'd like to.

Thanks,
Rob.
