UNIX Inquiry for Automatic Sending
Hi Everyone!
I'm new with UNIX,so, sorry if this question seems really dumb.
Anyway, I'd just like if it's possible to automatically inform someone (via mail or pop-up box or something) that a file has been recently uploaded/received to the UNIX box? If it is, any advice on how to get that started?
Thanks!

PUSH(8) BSD System Manager's Manual PUSH(8)
NAME
push -- fetch mail via POP
SYNOPSIS
push [-5 | --krb5] [-v | --verbose] [-f | --fork] [-l | --leave] [--from] [-c | --count] [--headers=headers] [-p port-spec |
--port=port-spec] po-box filename
DESCRIPTION
push retrieves mail from the post office box po-box, and stores the mail in mbox format in filename. The po-box can have any of the follow-
ing formats:
'hostname:username'
'po:hostname:username'
'username@hostname'
'po:username@hostname'
'hostname'
'po:username'
If no username is specified, push assumes that it's the same as on the local machine; hostname defaults to the value of the MAILHOST environ-
ment variable.
Supported options:
-5, --krb5
use Kerberos 5 (if compiled with support for Kerberos 5)
-f, --fork
fork before starting to delete messages
-l, --leave
don't delete fetched mail
--from behave like from.
-c, --count
first print how many messages and bytes there are.
--headers=headers
a list of comma-separated headers that should get printed.
-p port-spec, --port=port-spec
use this port instead of the default 'kpop' or '1109'.
The default is to first try Kerberos 5 authentication and then, if that fails, Kerberos 4.
ENVIRONMENT
MAILHOST
points to the post office, if no other hostname is specified.
EXAMPLES
$ push cornfield:roosta ~/.emacs-mail-crash-box
tries to fetch mail for the user roosta from the post office at ``cornfield'', and stores the mail in ~/.emacs-mail-crash-box (you are using
Gnus, aren't you?)
$ push --from -5 havregryn
tries to fetch From: lines for current user at post office ``havregryn'' using Kerberos 5.
SEE ALSO
from(1), pfrom(1), movemail(8), popper(8)
HISTORY
push was written while waiting for movemail to finish getting the mail.
