Here at MIT, we just use kerberized POP3 clients from everything; the
PCs and Macs don't have AFS access to the user's mail directories, but
they don't (yet?) have AFS access to anything else, either. (the
translator works very poorly for us for various reasons; not useable
for something like mail) What're the advantages of putting the spool
into AFS if you're going to use a networked transport layer (kPOP3)
anyway? We use hesiod to resolve the particular pop server for the
user (we use about 5 right now), which may be more of a problem to
people unfortunate enough to not use hesiod (use hesiod! it's simple
and it's useful)...

(P.S. the `officially supported' MIT kpop3 clients are publicly
available from mit, and there are other clients out there that can do
the job.)
