24 program checks all known mail drops for mail waiting
25 for you. For those drops which have mail for you,
28 indicate if it believes that you have seen the mail in question before.
33 switch indicates under what circumstances
35 should produce a message. The default is
40 should always report the status of the
41 users maildrop. Other values for `type' include `mail' which says that
43 should report the status of waiting mail; and, `nomail'
46 should report the status of empty maildrops.
50 switch has the inverted sense, so
55 to never report the status of
56 maildrops. This is useful if the user wishes to check

60 waiting for at least one of the indicated users.
