Trevor,

Mutt and fetchmail are installed. I have copied .muttrc and .fetchmailrc 
from another computer into the home directories of the user accounts. 
Mutt complains about not finding a mailbox. Fetchmail doesn't complain, 
but doesn't pick up anything. I had someone set up MacMail for one 
account, hoping it would establish the connection, but no luck.

Thanks,
John
