If I run `movemail' from a cronjob, there would be no need to run it again from emacs, correct? If that is the case, how does rmail know when to sync?

I just set up gnubiff and it quacked when your current email landed in my mailbox. ;-) I pressed 'g' and voila! run-with-timer would be over-the-top Western laziness, but I'm going to give it a shot!
