======Synopsis:======
[[set]] status_mail [<text>]

======Description:======
This variable sets the string displayed in the status bar when email is
present in the user's mailbox.  The mail does not necessarily need to
be new.  If the user's mailbox is empty, nothing is displayed.

This string is represented as **%M** in the [[set status_format|STATUS_FORMAT]]
string.  Within __STATUS_MAIL__, the expando will expand to the number of
messages in the mailbox.

======Examples:======
Customizing the string displayed when the mailbox contains messages:
	/set status_mail Mail: %M
