Consider setting up a local imap server. Do all email clients do imap nowadays? I use thunderbird, and since fetchmail broke, I just use rules to pull everything down from the net, sort it, and copy it to local folders on my imap server. You could then use mutt, or neomutt, or pine, or alpine, or whatever, to read (most of) your mail. And any html garbage they couldn't handle, you could use thunderbird or seamonkey or whatever. No need to move mail between different clients. And as for moving your current stuff over, you just move it from Seamonkey's local store to the imap server and it'll appear for all the other clients. Because I move around between home computers, having my mail like this exposed on an imap server is brilliant ... Cheers, Wol
