    ok...this is kinda funny now...I been doing some testing...first, in
    both machines...I have evolution ...pop...set to save on server.
    I then msg from my hotmail acct. to here...
    msg comes in...fine I then rsync /var/spool/mail/rado to other machine.
    I then run my script to shut down servers etc and switch machines and
    turn them on...

    in other machine now ok?...waitin a bit...nothing happens...so I think
    ok...I gotta activate procmail...I go to the windows box and send
    another msg to activate sendmail/procmail... then wow!!!
    when I go to pop it in...sendmail renamed the old spool file to
    BOGUS.rado.FUqz hummm don't know if it's cursing me out or what lol
    it then makes /var/spool/mail/rado

    I don't think it liked me copying that file over hahahaha
