I googled for this problem, but I had no luck in finding anything specific, only very general stuff for desktop machines that don't wander between networks.
Not the answer you're looking for but have you thought about using some sort of webmail? Then it doesn't matter where you are, as long as you can get on the net you have email. (to be honest, that's the main reason gmail works well for me, doesn't matter where I am I have access to my mail, there's no synching issues, no setup, no backup issues etc.). And these days the various webmail services out there don't suck as much as they used to (keyboard navigation, ajax-y snappiness etc). Gmail lets you change your sender address so you can keep using your old email address if that's an issue. You can also download the mail from gmail to your local machine at a later stage as well if you need. Only issue is whether you trust google (yahoo, etc.) to have a copy of all your mail (I'm very dull so it's not a problem for me :) Cheers.....Steve -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
