NOTHING is on your pc ... you can check mail at the office, from home, from the insecure hotel, from the insecure internet cafe, from the insecure kinkos and you will only see "new" emails for you to check and/or save you can do the same w/ pop3 .. takes little(lot) more work w/ procmail before using pop3 and if you dont want the 150K file, you never need to "get it" just delete on the pop server ... you do need to at least see the subject line that there is a pending 150K email you didnt read/check yet c ya alvin > says, "I don't care what you have or don't have, here are some new > messages.
