Charles: There are numerous ways to accomplish this. One that works for me is to use fetchmail on a single linux server to grab email from the various pop3 accounts that I use and redirect it all to a single mailbox on that server. There I use procmail to separate it, distill it, chop it, and dice it. On my laptop, Evolution connects via IMAP to the one server, where my email is separated into about 35 different folders. The man pages for procmail and procmailex look scary, so here are a couple of links to get started quickly: http://www.faqs.org/faqs/mail/filtering-faq/ <-- great starting point http://www.uwasa.fi/~ts/info/proctips.html Let me know if you'd like a copy of procmail recipes. Mine are simple but effective. HTH, Paul _______________________________________________ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
