I used to use the following once:

In the X resources put the following:

,-----
| XBiff*checkCommand:     /home-local/grossjoh/bin/check-for-new-mail
| XBiff*onceOnly:         true
`-----

And the check-for-new-mail script looks like this:

,-----
| #!/bin/sh
| if ( from | egrep -v 'debian' >/dev/null 2>&1 )
| then
|     exit 0;
| else
|     exit 2;
| fi
`-----

I think it's clear how to adapt this from debian to sun-managers :-)

I'm not sure if you need the onceOnly X resource, just try it.
