Anyway my workaround... does not really work. It only works if I receive a new mail while gnome-terminal is running : in this case I will have "You have new mail" at next command line prompt.
If I receive new mail while gnome-terminal is not running, THEN I launch gnome-terminal : no notification. But you are right, I should move to askubuntu. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-terminal in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1872053 Title: Local mail is never checked To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-terminal/+bug/1872053/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
