What's a good way to get all the BB environment variables set up when I
want to use them in a script that's not launched from hobbitd?

For example, if I have a script that receives an email and reports a
status because of it?  I know that I could hard-code everything, but
that's tacky.  :-)
server/bin/bbcmd <your script>
And if that gives an error that it can not open a config file, first do
export BBHOME=<server dir>

This also works for the hobbit client.
