Wmnotify
Dockable email notification program for single POP3 or IMAP4 account.
Wmnotify now supports SSL.
Program launch:
If you want wmnotify to produce sounds even when another program is using
the sound card (MP3 player for example), you must use the eSound (ESD)
library. This library act as a sound mixer daemon for enabling multiple
audio applications to have access to the sound card simultaneously.
Hopefully, wmnotify doesn't need to be recompiled to use this feature.
Simply launch wmnotify like this:
esddsp wmnotify
Your other audio applications must be configured for using eSound for this
to work however. For example, with the XMMS MP3 player (version 1.2.7), you
must specify this output plugin:
eSound Output Plugin 1.2.7 [libesdout.so]
If you don't have eSound or you don't want to use it, simply launch wmnotify
like this:
wmnotify
