The AppWizard does a great job for making quick CRUD apps for single-tables, but you needed a relationship-auto-finder that AppWizard doesn't do, which is why I didn't suggest it. Dabo can certainly handle the normalized structure of that database, but the AppWizard can't quickly make an application based on that normalized structure. > Anyway, I found an article yesterday that explained how to identify a > roaming user using their email address.

How can a roaming user's "from" be guaranteed to resolve to a unique ip address? If they are in a café, they are likely going over the local wifi where the router uses NAT, so everyone in that café has the same external ip address. Or are you going to automatically trust for relaying all email that purports to be from the stated domain? That opens you up to relaying from everywhere given the sender forges the from address. > The author did not recommend this solution, because it's not secure, but > I could use this method temporarily for a couple of iPhones, until I had > the time to implement something more secure, like sasl.

I haven't done it, but in TBird 3 "new account" I see a 'gmail' option.
