It's convenient to have the SC webmail page open in a separate
browser window, showing the Held Mail inbox.  This page auto
refreshes every 5 minutes, and with javascript enabled it will
pop up an alert telling you when new messages come in.  So if
I have a moment, it's easy to pop that browser window to the
front, quickly report or release the held message(s), and return
to what I was doing.   Quick and easy!  If I'm busy, I ignore it.

(I only need to monitor Held Mail this way, because ham
gets immediately forwarded from SC to my private inbox which
is monitored by my email reader.)
