And I forgot, the entry in /etc/crontab is:

# Force link up to check for mail
0 8-0/4 * * * root /etc/ppp/mail_run -f >>/etc/ppp/mail_run.log 2>&1
# Send any outgoing mail, check incoming if so
15,35,55 * * * * root /etc/ppp/mail_run -c >>/etc/ppp/mail_run.log 2>&1
# Only check if line is up
5,25,45 * * * * root /etc/ppp/mail_run >>/etc/ppp/mail_run.log 2>&1
