most web mail type setups don't have easy ways to import into a local-based email client, even if you're on a PC. you'd have to check with the admins of the web site or the makers of the webmail software... the way web servers and web mail work, the files you're looking at are probably either programs and not data files, or temp files used by the server. -- The iMac List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
