Yeah, my script does explicitly enter the sniffer directory, and the
line to delete the file is explicit as well:

Del s:\imail\spool\%1

...but that never worked.  Maybe if I cd into the spool first it might
work, but it is working with current directive, which is:

Del s:\imail\spool\*.tmp

...so I really don't have a compelling reason to test it.
