No, I'm not trying to delete the message.  What I want to do is send a
message to myself and refresh the mailbox, so that I can see the message
in my mailbox before the next scheduled mail check.  (In other words, I
want to be able to check my mail at an arbitrary time, rather than at
every mail_check interval).
