Hi Matt,

I have done this and it works for new mail arriving but I need to onsend
the existing mail.

Ah, I misread what you were looking to do.  You should be able to do the following then.

cat /var/spool/mail/root | mail -s "Old Root Emails" user@xxxxxxxxx

Hope that helps.
Matt

You are a legend!!!! Thanks so much.
Kate
