Since I don't have my NeXT connected to a network (mine is a solitary and
lonely machine) I have a dial-up internet accout.  Is there any way to
download mail files and read them in 3.0's Mail.app?  I've tried this with
pine and mm mailbox files, but I get a message that "this mailbox is of an
old type".  I've wriiten a script that auotmates the download process, but
it's pretty useless if I can't read the files.
