One solution I can think of is to start screen as a background process (server screen). Not sure if 'screen &' is enough or you may need to use the 'at' command. You can then start another screen session to connect to the original. This one will die on exit but leave the master running. There may may be a command line option for this, possibly then one mentioned above (I don't have it installed at the moment so I can't check) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
