hi,

i made it work, so if someone interested here is the solution. it works with other types too
i made a file /root/mailcheck.sh with content:
#!/bin/bash
old=$(cat /tmp/size)
new=$(du -s /home/fishy/.thunderbird/default/sgzo838b.slt/Mail | cut -f 1)

du -s /home/fishy/.thunderbird/default/sgzo838b.slt/Mail |cut -f 1 >/tmp/size if [ "$old" == "$new" ]; then
echo 0 >/proc/acpi/asus/mled
else
echo 1 >/proc/acpi/asus/mled
fi

and put */2 * * * * /root/mailcheck.sh into /etc/crontab crontab /etc/crontab

it checks mail dir's size in 2 mins, and the led will also lighht for 2 min's exchange the directory names to yours

BR,
Fishy
