+pam_mail — Inform about available mail
+
+━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
+
+DESCRIPTION
+
+The pam_mail PAM module provides the "you have new mail" service to the user.
+It can be plugged into any application that has credential or session hooks. It
+gives a single message indicating the newness of any mail it finds in the
+user's mail folder. This module also sets the PAM environment variable, MAIL,
+to the user's mail directory.
+
+If the mail spool file (be it /var/mail/$USER or a pathname given with the dir=
+parameter) is a directory then pam_mail assumes it is in the Maildir format.
+
+OPTIONS
+
+close
+
+    Indicate if the user has any mail also on logout.
+
+debug
+
+    Print debug information.
+
+dir=maildir
+
+    Look for the user's mail in an alternative location defined by maildir/
+    <login>. The default location for mail is /var/mail/<login>. Note, if the
+    supplied maildir is prefixed by a '~', the directory is interpreted as
+    indicating a file in the user's home directory.
+
+empty
+
+    Also print message if user has no mail.
+
+hash=count
+
+    Mail directory hash depth. For example, a hashcount of 2 would make the
+    mail file be /var/spool/mail/u/s/user.
+
+noenv
+
+    Do not set the MAIL environment variable.
+
+nopen
+
+    Don't print any mail information on login. This flag is useful to get the 
+    MAIL environment variable set, but to not display any information about it.
+
+quiet
+
+    Only report when there is new mail.
+
+standard
+
+    Old style "You have..." format which doesn't show the mail spool being
+    used. This also implies "empty".
+
+EXAMPLES
+
+Add the following line to /etc/pam.d/login to indicate that the user has new
+mail when they login to the system.
+
+session  optional  pam_mail.so standard
