I use 1 and 3 - a thick client at home (Thunderbird) and Squirrelmail from work. At past jobs, where I was able to install a thick client (not allowed here), I ran Thunderbird as well. To keep things consistent between environments, I use only server-side filtering (i.e. procmail, maildrop, etc) and configure the various environments to use the same sent folders, etc, by default. --Tyler /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
