Hi again,

this is what I have done, as adviced by you guys (thanks)

created a file called pop which contains
#! /bin/sh
lynx -dump http://192.168.254.10/pop3/pop3_stuff2.php3 > /dev/null
clear

If I execute this from the shell ./pop it works OK.
But as a cron job I get an error message sent to my mail box
"Your terminal lacks the ability to clear the screen or position the 
cursor.",
hence this 'clear' bit in my script to try to sort the problem but no joy.

Any ideas?
