I'm trying to keep an open mind. Just because I've done things one way for 25 years doesn't mean it's best (usually the opposite). I tried IMAP a couple of years ago, and I just wasn't happy having to go onto the server to get copies of emails I needed to look at again. MailMate would allow me to find it on my hard drive, but then why do I need a copy sitting up on the server? This is obviously a philosophical question about approach to email. The need to access from more than one machine is a possibility in the future. Maybe I could try to keep only emails from the last month or year on the server and within MailMate. Older stuff that I still want I could offload to my main computer. Elsewhere on this list, people have discussed archiving emails. DevonThink, EagleFiler, and Foxtrot were mentioned. I could look into some sort of approach using one of those. _______________________________________________ mailmate mailing list mailmate@lists.freron.com https://lists.freron.com/listinfo/mailmate
