You could use the recently posted 'popmail.el' which will pop up a
window and run rmail if you have emacs running. Which brings up a 
few questions that I have (I'm not a lisp hacker):

1. Is there any way to get popmail to pop a buffer ONLY if the
current emacs session is running rmail already.

2. Is there any way to keep popmail from going to the first unread
message of the NEW mail (most disconcerting since I always have to
find the mail I was reading when popmail kicks in)

thanks
