Scans bulletin directories for any which are newer than the
<EM>.timestamp</EM> file in the specified maildir. For each bulletin that it finds, it adds a
symlink to that bulletin to the specified maildir. Since no reformatting is
done, these bulletins must be fully formatted email messages, including
full headers.
