For the most part I have been attempting to get third party programs
to take email from slrn and deliver it to localhost ==> Hamster but I
have failed in this so far. Sending an appropriately formatted email
from slrn _direcly_ to localhost / Hamster seems not possible. I am
trying a work-around of passing email to an external MUA which can
then pass to Hamster; but many of the windows MUAs do not measure up
to mutt. No surprise there I guess.

Thanks for the script which I shall experiment with when SWMBO has
finished on the Windows computer :-).
