FWIW, I'm using the little script below executed by cron every 5 mins to
check for mail on an IMAP server. However, in NS4.75 it still thinks
there is unread mail even after I read it all unless I clean up the
server with something like a compress folders or exit NS. I'm not sure
what it does with Mozilla. I'll have to check. Here's the script:
#!/bin/csh
fetchmail -c -s
if $status != 1 then
/usr/bin/play /home/shell/bin/spring.wav
/usr/X11R6/bin/xmessage -center -display shelikoff:0.0 New mail has
arrived
endif
My .fetchmailrc file has the details of what to check.
