Ok, I have that part. But is there a way to bring the already running
mutt process to the fore instead of just saying, "Mutt is already
running"?

Thanks

----------------

#!/bin/bash
SERVICE='Mutt'

if ps ax | grep -i $SERVICE > /dev/null
then
    echo "$SERVICE is already running!!!"
else
    gnome-terminal --window-with-profile=muttprofile --geometry=80x47 -
x mutt
