That's why I wrote the BAT files!  I found I had a lot of unread 
mail.

I've got some BAT files I'd like to automate as well.  I'm 
finding that it is not all that easy!

I instigate the polling from my side, so I can't help you there.  

I'll have to see if I can find some of my old DOS books and 
do some late night reading.  One of them, if I can find it, had 
a lot to say about BAT programming.
