If you check in the standard (default) .cshrc, it has the lines:

if ($?prompt) then
         # An interactive shell -- set some stuff up
         set filec
         set history = 100
         set savehist = 100
         set mail = (/var/mail/$USER)
endif

So I suspect that's the check I should use in .login
