Hmmm, sounds like a winner for you Karthik.  Get dyndns working, ssh into your 
home machine.  I'd just run fetchmail and mutt or balsa if the bandwidth is 
there.  If the bandwidth is not there, you might just sftp your mail spool to 
yourself.  That will keep people from violating your pop passwords, especially 
that Paws account where people can drop your classes and stuff.
