Description : watch mailstores for changes and initiate mailbox syncs
mswatch is a command line unix program that keeps two mailboxes
synchronized /more efficiently/ and with /shorter delays/ than
periodically synchronizing the two the two mailboxes.
,
mswatch watches mailboxes to know when to initiate mailbox syncs.
Using mswatch, your mail synchronization program can be called on
demand instead of through polling, resulting in prompter mail delivery
and lower bandwidth usage and server load.
.
mswatch is designed to work in conjunction with mailbox synchronization
programs, currently supports watching Linux (2.4+) hosted Maildirs
(including Maildir folders, Maildir++), and is licensed under the GNU
GPL.
