But having a script implies the user will invoke it, or take a chance that
an Administrator-installed logon script is invoked, or even worse, having
to logon to each user in question.  My problems stem from users that are
infrequent accessors (we use Desk to front-end applications for novice
users, and they may never read mail) and users that use the size-unlimited
intray for storage of mail items (we encourage downloading).
 
I would like to use the "everyone" server to send out notices, but we have
a nontrivial percentage of users that may not read mail.
 
If there were a "Desk-wide" logon script that the users could not override
that would be almost adequate.
