Hi,
I'm using mozilla to get email from the ISP pop3 account and
make posts using its own smtp.

Now i set up fetchmail, exim, and procmail to deliver to the mozilla
~/Mail/Inbox, but mozilla doesn't show when mail has arrived. What's a
good way for setting up mozilla like this?



I use movemail <http://www.mozilla.org/mailnews/movemail/>. In addition to those instructions, make /var/mail/ have permissions 1777 so that mozilla can write its lock file. Obviously, if you do this don't have procmail deliver the mail anywhere except /var/mail/`whoami`
