+1 to Thunderbird. The last I checked (about a year ago) it supported only mbox format. IMO, IMAP is the best option as suggested by Nilesh. When you change service provider you can copy the messages from server.old to server.new from within the IMAP client (Thunderbird). But since IMAP is not acceptable to the client, then s/he has to deal with portability of data when they migrate desktop from Linux <> Windows <> OS X unless the "home" dirs are served by NFS/Samba. My two cents. Arun Khan _______________________________________________ plug-mail mailing list [email protected] http://list.plug.org.in/listinfo/plug-mail
