Heh :-) While I'd love to, I'm usually just the scummy contractor brought in to help clean up the mess, and somehow that never involves properly trashing ("replace it with Linux!" "oh, shut up") or even properly configuring all of the Win stuff. No matter; there's always enough work to do on the *NIX side, anyway. But I love the idea :-) % % I use IMAP and am very happy with Mutt's implementation. Deleted mail is % marked D and goes away only if I sync.

Same here, and I'm only on mbox :-) I'd probably use IMAP more except for the bit where I can't go back and mark a message 'N'ew again :-( % % -- % [Simon White. vim/mutt.
