In my situation, I don't control (or even have access to) end
users' machines. This is an ISP environment. These people don't
know *how* to check a folder on their mail client, and for my
organization to ask them to do so would be too much for most of these
people.
Many of these folks shouldn't even be using computers, yet they
are. :-(
