But it was able to do it remotely (via a client/server style
connection, not just an NFS mount or some such). I just don't
remember what the communications mechanism was - I remember being
under the impression that it was the imapd doing it...I don't THINK it
was rsh or anything like that, but it's been a while, so I'm not
positive. And I don't have an easy way to test it out at the moment.
