   Shell scripts to handle outgoing/incomin

   Hi,   
      
   I have a situation (my recent crop of test messages), I have a script that does   
   this:   
      
   1) Copy/backup messages to a backup directory.   
   2) Zero out the message base file.   
   3) Post a new message.   
   4) Restore backed up messages.   
      
   The problem is that it doesn't save the recent message(s). The message base   
   file has to be zeroed out before I can post a new message to that message area.   
      
   Anyone have an ideas?   
      
   Thanks,   
   ignatius
