    I have a notifier for my personal gmail account, and that is very handy — saves me a lot of time checking to see what has come in.

    GoDaddy only offers a prepackaged notifier for Windows, however (although they supply a Mac executable if you try to download the notifier under Linux).

    I checked the FireFox plugins for a generic webmail notifier, but the best one, WebMail Notifier does not have native support for GoDaddy (email.secureserver.net), and I didn’t feel like spending the time writing a custom script, especially since there is forum activity on this exact subject dating back 2 years, with no easily findable script.

    Lo and behold?  The windows notifier works under WINE.  :)

    Just download the Windows installer (it was wbensetup_PL.msi for me). Then in a terminal run msiexec /i <path_to_file>/wbensetup_PL.msi

    Follow the instructions, and, at least in my Gnome toolbar, a notifier appeared.

    Nice.

    I should note that my current setup is Ubuntu 8.04 with OpenBox as my window manager, running the gnome toolbar.
