I have Ubuntu Mate 20.04.1 LTS (Focal Fossa) 64-bit. Please advise me how to be notified on my e-mails without continuously checking out e-mail boxes. Thank you.

Good things to try are:

  • MailNag (fork of Popper), it is installable by

    sudo add-apt-repository ppa:pulb/mailnag
    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get install mailnag
    
  • Mozilla Thunderbird with BirdTray, installable by

    sudo apt-get install thunderbird birdtray
    

    BirdTray minimizes Thunderbird on start and then monitor its mail folders to indicate number of new e-mails and show notification about new mails.

Evolution, the standard GNOME e-mail client, also informs about incoming mails via notifications. There is also an additional package, evolution-indicator, that displays notifications even when Evolution application is not currently running.
