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
