PE> Good news - I've got permission from Dave to poll at 5:30AM.

Thanks for that. I wasnt greatly worried because I realised that
even if I did do the mail run before the am poll in DST times,
I would likely be getting the mail at the same freshness it
would have had with his old config of a pair of machines anyway.

Still, this is even better again, even without DST its
sometimes a bit of a hassle with me wanting to do the run
for fresh mail before you had done yours to Dave after 7am.

PE> Mail is packed at 4AM, ready by 5AM, and there is half an hour of leeway
PE> for wrong clocks etc.  If I were to poll at 5AM I would not get any mail.

Sounds great. Thanks for that.
