e-mail notification

e-mail notification

[Ivan Kanis]

I would like to setup e-mail notification that is in time.el. I have a
group nnml:interesting that I want to watch.

So I found that does the right thing: mail-source-report-new-mail.

However when I run it I get an error

"Need to set `mail-source-primary-source' to check for new mail."

And now I am at loss what I need to do here. I search emacswiki, this
newsgroup, nothing...

Is someone using this? Could you tell me how to set the variable?

If anyone follow this thread mail-source-report-new-mail only works with
POP.
