Only if you are one of those people who read email while online.

Which to me is as silly as reading my mail sitting in the postoffice!

Gmail has some nice, but is not the holy grail and it does _not_ solve
"All the technical problems associated with access and archiving"!

Note that I use Gmail, so I'm not opposed to it. I just get irritated
with folks that think there is only one way to read email.

_I_ think that you all should use fetchmail, run it throught
spamassasin and procmail. Then hand it to an IMAP server setup for
local access. Toss in mairix for indexed searching and who need
Google!
