I run squatter in a perl program that forks three parallel squatter
processes on individual user's mailboxes. If a mailbox is locked the
particular squatter processing the mailbox quits, but the main program
continues to fork new processes for the remaining mailboxes. The program
checkpoints each user, shuts down at 6 A.M., and continues where it left
off the following day.
