i run postfix bound to localhost on my laptop even, and then use fetchmail to obtain all my mail via pop3/ssl. this way, all my mail is always local, and i don't need imap. however, i would like to add compression to this to minimize the traffic caused on the servers, so i was thinking of rsync. but the isync package looks quite cool too. can it speak imaps natively? or just the tls extension? -- martin; (greetings from the heart of the sun.) \____ echo mailto: !#^."<*>"|tr "<*> mailto:"; net@madduck the file you need might be very useful. but now it is gone.
