You are the man. If we ever meet I owe you a beer, at least one.

In the fax2mail script, it just calls mime-construct without a full 
path. mime-construct on my box is in /usr/local/bin which must not be in 
  the path of the environment System calls are run in. Putting in the 
fully qualified path made it work.

Thanks again.
