  I can only get this to work from a real shell, and not crontab.  So
opened up a new tty by going {ALT-F4} and logging in.  I created the
following script and ran it...

#!/bin/bash
while :
  do
/usr/bin/ssh -P -f -L 10110:pop3.clss.net:110 myuserID-1sV0mdQTbhc at public.gmane.org sleep 25
/usr/bin/mutt -F /home/waltdnes/.symmutt/clssmuttrc
date
sleep 3600
  done

  Yeah, it's heavy-handed, but it works.
