Using IMAP is definitely useful, though, since it breaks the link between data and presentation. Examples: (1) Back during the X.org 7.0 transition, my GUI broke for a couple of days. Since I use fetchmail/postfix/spamassasin/maildrop, and use postfix as a smarthost, I was able, using links2, to configure mutt to use IMAP and still have my email fetched and filtered and sent without any reconfiguration. (2) Occasionally, Evo would break or I'd get tired of it's bloat. Temporarily moving to Sylpheed was trivial for the same reason as with Mutt. (3) When I decided to permanently move to Tbird, same ease as (1) and (2). (4) If I ever decide to implement webmail, it will be easy. - -- Ron Johnson, Jr. Jefferson LA USA Is "common sense" really valid? For example, it is "common sense" to white-power racists that whites are superior to blacks, and that those with brown skins are mud people. However, that "common sense" is obviously wrong. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFFGtphS9HxQb37XmcRAu69AKDEcpkvPmIT25epCrYqUSJvKubvkwCfTIiy Bz69rlbqXlZlSApaooOPy6A= =YMvQ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
