Set the shapeWindow resource to True (or use -shape on the command line). Use the bitmap program and make a bitmap and bitmap_mask file with all 0's and use them for the "empty" bitmaps and anything you want for the "full" bitmaps. Then you get nothing whatsoever displayed when you don't have mail but you get whatever you specified for the "full" bitmap when you do have mail. For example: xbiff*shapeWindow: True xbiff*fullPixmap: HOME/lib/bitmaps_x11/zippy.xbm xbiff*fullPixmapMask: HOME/lib/bitmaps_x11/zippy_mask.xbm xbiff*emptyPixmap: HOME/lib/bitmaps_x11/blank.xbm xbiff*emptyPixmapMask: HOME/lib/bitmaps_x11/blank_mask.xbm
