ugh. i guess you could proxy authenticate the pop server, but this would
be a lot of work, for marginal gain.
How about putting 'liw' rights on ~/Mail/inbox? If only insert rights
worked correctly.

support some laptops?)

but this is a pain. i like to collect new mail by popping the inc button in
my gui, not by finding a window on an upstream machine etc.
alias inc rsh popmachine -n inc
Well, it would probably have to be a shell script. And you'd have to rescan
since popmachine couldn't update the .xmhcache.
I inc into the cache too, but if I'm in disconnected mode (surprised peter
didn't mention this) the file doesn't get stored over the wire until I
reconnect.
