Nothing at all. I was just responding to the comment that Evolution did
not know how to read a local spool file (as opposed to imap/pop from a
server). If we continue to do local delivery of cron/logwatch/etc
stuff, and if we possibly add some stuff to firstboot to help setup the
root alias, then we already have a tool, evolution, that can be used to
read the resulting mail spool.
