What do you have to do to use netscape as a client and why does it not work
great with it. I've been thinking pretty hard about letting our email be
exposed to the net through our DSL link but haven't really convinced myself I
can do it safely. I use ssh and forward a connection to the imap server
through the firewal that will only accept the keys and passphrase but my
patner thinks that is too complicated to do so he leaves his mail on the ISP
server too.
Very interested in your reply when/if you have the time.
