Description:

The xmailbox program displays, by default, an image of a mailbox. When there is no mail, the image shown is that of a mailbox with its flag down. When new mail arrives, the image changes to that of a mailbox with the flag up, its door open and a letter visible inside. It can also optionally play a sound through the sound-card. The NCD audio server, the rplay sound package, FreeBSD Sun-compatible audio drivers, and an external sound player program are supported. By default, pressing any mouse button in the image forces xmailbox to remember the current size of the mail file as being the ``empty'' size and to change its image accordingly. In addition, the user can optionally invoke his/her favorite mail retrieving program.

Cleanup plist

Rename mail/ patch-xy patches to reflect the files they modify.

- Undeprecate, 1 user uses this port
- Stage support
- Pass maintainership to user (A.J. 'Fonz' van Werven)

Deprecate a few unmaintained ports (leaf ports, non staged and unmaintained
since more than 12 years)

Remove trailing whitespaces from category mail

According to the Porter's Handbook (5.12.2.3.) default options must be added to
OPTIONS_DEFINE. This policy has been implemented only recently that's why we
have many ports violating this policy.

This patch adds the default options specified in the Porter's Handbook to
OPTIONS_DEFINE where they are being used. Ports maintained by
gnome@FreeBSD.org, kde@FreeBSD.org and x11@FreeBSD.org have been excluded.

Approved by:    portmgr (bapt)

Add NO_STAGE all over the place in preparation for the staging support (cat:
mail)

Convert to USES=imake
Trim headers
Convert to USE_GCC=any where needed
Remove indefinite article

- remove MD5

- Update X.org ports to 7.4+ (few ports are more recent than the katamari).
- Bump PORTREVISION for all ports depending on libglut since the shlib
version number went from 4 to 3.
- Bump PORTREVISION for all ports depending on libXaw as libXaw.so.8 isn't
installed anymore.
- Couple of ports fixes (mostly missing xorg components added to USE_XORG).

Fix USE_XORG for the upcoming bsd.port.mk changes (ports/122340).

Approved by:    portmgr (self)

- Remove unneeded dependency from gtk12/gtk20 [1]

Spaces->tabs in the mail category.    

Convert category mail to new layout.  

(1) Add new variable, XFREE86_VERSION, to specify which version of       XFree86
(3 or 4) to depend to when USE_XLIB is set.       XFREE86_VERSION defaults to 3
for now, but adventurous users can       override it in /etc/make.conf.  When
XFREE86_VERSION=3, USE_XLIB       will add a dependency to x11/XFree86; when it
is set to 4, the       dependency will be to x11/XFree86-4-libraries.  When     
 XFREE86_VERSION=4, the PKG_IGNORE_DEPENDS and ALWAYS_BUILD_DEPENDS       hacks
to avoid messing with XFree86 are turned off.
