- # This autoloadable function checks the folders specified as arguments
- # for new mails. The arguments are interpeted in exactly the same way
- # as the mailpath special zsh parameter (see zshparam(1)).
- #
- # If no arguments are given mailpath is used. If mailpath is empty, $MAIL
- # is used and if that is also empty, /var/spool/mail/$LOGNAME is used.
- # This function requires zsh-3.0.1 or newer.
