It would be much cheaper to check all their mail at once.
Why not set up your machine as a pop3 server, use fetchmail/exim with a cron job to get all mail delivered to their respective accounts, and point netscape to its own belly-button (I mean, your own machine :) as the mail server? I'm not sure, but this may require your setting up named (BIND) as well, unless a direct reference to the localhost works... Kenward -- Hi! I'm a .signature virus!
