What I am looking for is a script that will yank the subject line from newly 
arrived email in specific folders and user festival to read the subject. That 
way if I am not sitting at my computer I will know if I need to action the 
email. I want it to read the Subject from all unread mail in the folder. It 
does not have to alter the message (mark it read) or anything.
Thanks,
John
