# Chapter 6. Questions, Answers, and Tips

# 6.1. Are there other KDE-aware "biff" utilities?

Yes. There are at least two that I know of. Each "biff" has its own strengths. KOrn was the original. It's main strength is the ability to monitor multiple mailboxes with one instance and effectively show the number of messages in each. If you have many mailboxes and don't care for the cutesy icons, then KOrn is probably a better choice than KBiff. The other "biff" is KNewMail. KNewMail attempts to emulate the Windows utility NewMail. It checks for POP3 mail and displays the subject line for each message.
