NAME

     mailquery - queries a pop server  about  how  much  mail  is
     available

SYNTAX

     mailquery [-d] [-v] [ user[@host]]

DESCRIPTION

     The command queries a POP server for information  about  how
     much mail a user has.  The program will exit with status = 0
     if there is mail, and with status = 1 if there is  no  mail.
     The  -v  flag can be used to get a more verbose report.  The
     -d flag can be used to turn on debugging output in  the  pop
     library  code.   The  pop  server can be specified either by
     setting the environment variable MAILHOST, or on the command
     line.   If  no  user is specified, user is set to the person
     who ran the program.
