I may be incorrect, but I believe that /bin/login sets the MAIL variable. It will be available in your login shell, but unless it's been exported, will not show up in subshells, such as your script.

NAME

       claws-mail-feeds-reader -- Feeds (RSS/Atom) reader plugin for Claws Mail mailer

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the claws-mail-feeds-reader

       This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

       claws-mail-feeds-reader	is a plugin (loadable module) for the Claws Mail mailer. It allows user subscribe and read feeds like if they were
       regular mail messages.

       Also integrates nicely with dillo-plugin, allowing online browsing of feeds' sources.

USAGE

       Before using a plugin you must instruct Claws Mail to load it on startup.

       For this you must go ``Configuration'' menu on main window toolbar, open ``Plugins...'' dialog, click on the ``Load plugin...'' button  and
       select the plugin file, named rssyl.so, and press the ``Open''	    button.

SEE ALSO

       claws-mail (1), claws-mail-dillo-plugin (1).
