Alternatively, on Berkeley systems, you can use biff(1) or set the csh(1)
$mail variable. (Yes, biff insists on beeping and won't flash your screen.)
For csh, put a line like set mail=(10 /usr/spool/mail/$user) in your .cshrc
to have csh check your mailbox every 10 minutes or at your next prompt,
whichever is later. If there's new mail, you get a little 'You have new
mail.' message.
