How on earth is anyone getting mail now?  Can you mimic that?

I won't go into wondering why you can't fake it with fetchmail or the

If you have access to the server, could you just read in an xterm from
there?  Or perhaps you could grab your mail out of /var/mail and
"deliver" it to $HOME somewhere...
