3 Shows maildirs status in a textbox.

5 Maildirs are structured as follows:
6
7         ~/Mail
8         .
9         |-- arch
10         |   |-- cur
11         |   |-- new
12         |   `-- tmp
13         |-- gmail
14         |   |-- cur
15         |   |-- new
16         |   `-- tmp
17         .
18         .
19         .
20
21 therefore the widget checks whether there are files in the `new` directories.
22 If there's new mails, the textbox will say something like "mail: bugs(3), system(1)", otherwise it says
23 "no mail".
24
25         mymaildir = lain.widgets.maildir("/path/to/my/maildir")
