Oo... What a waste. I actually thought it was quite interesting. And I found an on-topic question related to this: Since this is a laptop-list, I'd be interested in hearing what people use to read mail on their laptops. Reading mail on a laptop does require that one can manage to read mail off-line as well as connected. If you're using IMAP like me, you need to have some sort of caching or you'll have to find a network to be able to access your messages. On the other hand, a laptop if often not a good place for permanent storage, so having local folders doesn't cut it. Particularly, I'd like to hear about experiences with off-line operation and IMAP in Evolution... Cheers, fabbe
