Default Looking for biff client. (An email (pop3) monitor)

Does anybody know of any freeware biff clients? A biff client* is a small program that sits in your system tray and occasionally checks your email accounts for new mail. (* Biff is a name from the earlier unix days, back when B1FF!!!11 was a legend. An odd legend, but a legend nonetheless.)

I don't want to keep thunderbird up all the time, especially while I'm gaming. But something small in the tray (or on the desktop) to let me know something's out there would be nice.

I've checked Tucows and no-nags, but they don't seem to exist anymore.
