In that regard, my Cox Cable ISP has a webmail feature. When I am at my 
daughter's house in Germany, or any other place where I can get to any 
browser, I can check my Cox mail and choose to answer it, delete it or 
leave it on the server to be downloaded again after I get home. And it 
doesn't matter that my daughter has a dialup connection- I can still 
check my mail, only more slowly.

Cox is probably not available where Doug lives, but I offered this simply 
to show him the sort of thing that might be available from other 
broadband providers.
