Perhaps I should have qualified my statement.  I find Notes a more severe
test that Mail, but that is among the programs I am likely to use from a
strange machine.  Some other commands that might be a good test are MONITOR,
LICENSE LIST/FULL, SHOW CLUSTER and SHOW PROCESS/CONTINUOUS.  These all have
interactive capabilities which should be exercised rather than just
being satisfied with the default output text.
