Aaah, that clearifies a lot ;-)

Hmmm, one option might be to set the Netscape option 'leave messages on
server' to yes on one computer (at home or at work, whichever has the
fastest connection I think) and to disable it at the other. In that way
you get all the stuff on one computer.
Another option might be to use mailfilters to organize all the incoming
mails into different mailboxes. I think that you could use procmail or
something like that to filter the messages and maybe even create
different users on your Linux box so that specific mail gets distributed
to different users (I just thought of that right now, but haven't tried
it ever).
I think that with 300 mails a day I would get some information overload
anyway.
Bye,
Marcel
