My daughter wants to be able to read her mail from anywhere, not just at
home.
Currently, her mail comes via @HOME, whence it is fetched to my gateway
box, which she accesses with linux (remote X query). Works fine, but she
wants to read email from anywhere.
My gateway faces the internet and can serve as a mail server for her. She
uses netscape to read mail.
These are my questions:
1. Can someone point to a good discussion of roaming profiles. I think I
would need that to allow her to use netscape from any computer to read her
mail.
2. How can I be sure that netscape will not slurp all her email out of her
mail box on the linux server? Netscape 4.7x, which she uses, doesn't, but
netscape 6.1, which I use, does. After I read my mail once in 6.1, all the
mail has been downloaded to the local machine. I have checked the leave on
server box in the preferences, but, that doesn't seem to do any good.
Thanks,
Joel
