Hi Marc.  Yes, it works as you said.  The only problem is the long
cryptic name for each message.  However, when a quick check is needed,
that works fine.  If the messages are needed longer term I guess it
would be best to get them integrated into the "real" kmail.

Perhaps the Local Mail directory could be set to use that location?
That's something I could play with later.  As it is, I'm still working
on getting cron messages to me reliably.
