If I haven't authorized Mail to allow a script to act after a reboot

allow a script to trigger a message! So I don't get my alert.
This Mail dialog box is a major pain. However, as a workaround create a
simple script to send you an email - doesn't matter what the content
is. Now add it to your user's startup items. Doesn't fix the problem
per se but does chuck up the Mail dialog box when the machine is being
restarted so you're more likely to catch it.
A proper workaround is to enable Sendmail on your machine. You can then
use doscript to send emails regardless.
