Ok.. here's one that MUST have an answer that I just missed.

Is it possible to have mailbox look to a directory on another machine other 
than the one you're on?  It seems this could be accomplished using the 
-C envelope-counter  flag, by somehow specifying the "counting program" to 
be an rsh over to the desired machine, looking at the proper file, etc.

Someone MUST have tackled this by now.  Wanna save me some time?
