Fedora/Gnome: Check email in the background?
by ZodWallop from LinuxQuestions.org on (#53E62)
Hey guys. How can I get email notifications without keeping my email program opened at all times?
I'm used to Windows 10 which would tell me about new messages when I wake my PC up. I'd like to replicate that. Geary can do it. I just got one as I was typing this message, though I don't currently have Geary showing as open.
But I would prefer to use Thunderbird. Even when I have Thunderbird as the only email application, I only see new mail notifications after opening Thunderbird.
