"Error: Too many messages to download. Mail from this account has not been retrieved since May 15." That's a real message discovered in my gmail settings this evening. It's so important that google chose to leave it there, in case I got suspicious that I was missing *some* email (not all). If your cloud provider doesn't feel you need to know something, they won't tell you. You don't get message logs. You can't call them for help. You have no effective guarantee of service, because you can't measure them in the first place. Yes they're handy. But I still run my own MXs -- I just use google as a convenient front-end/search system, which usually works. -jim _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.canterbury.ac.nz/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
