PyBiff

PyBiff is an email notification utility for the system tray, periodically checking email accounts for new messages. The current status is indicated by the icon in the tray, and a custom command can be executed and a sound played when new mail arrives. Another custom action can be performed by clicking the icon.

PyBiff is implemented in Python 3 using PyQt6. It supports POP3 and IMAP4 protocols with or without SSL. Besides showing an icon it provides status details in a tooltip, a control menu, and a convenient configuration dialog.

PyBiff has been inspired by KBiff <https://granroth.com/kbiff/> and provides the original icons from that package as default icon set. It is licensed under GPLv2.
