I've considered IMAP, but that means my user can't read their emails
offline, they travel very often. So?
Even with IMAP, I cannot archive the emails to tape and retrieve them with a
specific criteria such as within a period, specific messages, etc. I can
only restore the whole directory back which may overwrite my newer emails,
right? correct me if I'm wrong, as I'm new to IMAP.
