For the sake of the archives the solution to this is
,----
| (setq mail-sources '((file :path "/var/mail/boudiccas")
| (pop :server "mail.pooh.bear"
| :user "winnie@pooh.bear"
| :password "rhubarbandcustard")))
`----
This will then download all the system mails at the same time as the normal
emails.
Sharon.
