+# maildaemon, fetchmail driver intended to be invoked hourly by cron.
+#
+# Script by Larry Fahnoe <fahnoe@kegworks.mn.org>, who writes:
+#
+# This is intended to support a standalone system (NeXTSTEP in this case) 
+# which makes manual, on-demand PPP connections to the outside world.  The
+# script is run as the target user from cron on an hourly basis.  If it
+# finds a PPP link is up (it sees routes on a PPP interface), fetchmail is
+# invoked.  If the link is not up, and the hour is in the list of hours that
+# connections should be made, the link is brought up and fetchmail is
+# invoked.  The program or script used to bring up the link should return an
+# exit status which reflects whether the link actually came up. 
+# 
+# I wrote this because I wanted to be able to have control over the amount
+# of time spent connected to an ISP and yet still be able to poll for mail
+# at intervals that made sense to me.  One limitation of this script is that
+# it does not take into account that an existing PPP link might be going to
+# a different ISP or network.
