Also, there is a handy extension for thunderbird for archiving mail called mboximport. You can find it here: http://nic-nac-project.de/~kaosmos/mboximport-en.html For exporting to xml, I have had some success with XMA (http://xma.xineo.net/), but this project is still in early beta, so YMMV. It seems to work fine exporting a single folder without sub folders. The web access part is not difficult at all. The hardest part is setting up permissions using .htaccess. The next hardest part is setting up an SSL web site (you have to buy or generate your own cert, there is a lot of documentation out there for this). The WebDAV part is something like 4 lines in my apache config, and the module is packaged as part of Debian/Ubuntu. OK, I guess this is not hard if you have any background with Apache, you can leverage the skills you already have. Otherwise I can see how this would appear to be daunting. On the plus side, we now have clug-tech for just this sort of thing :) Hth, Dharam wrote: > Gustin Johnson wrote: >> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- >> Hash: SHA1 >> >> Kin Wong wrote: >> >>> I like Thunderbird from Mozilla -- it is cross-platform and the ability >>> to add Lightning or use Sunbird is attractive as well. >>> >>> >> This is what I use daily.
