i usually get mail on machine 1. i am often logged on to machine 2. i'd 
like a script i could run on machine 2 that would call machine 1 every so 
often and fetch any new mail that may have come in.  

i had heard that there was a perl script that does this. does anyone have 
a script, in perl or any other language?

thanks
