Actually, nowadays with people routinely checking their email in several different devices (home computer, work computer, smartphone, tablet...) using IMAP (which always keeps the messages on the server) is becoming really attractive. IMAP will resync automatically with the server -- you can even tell Seamonkey not to store messages locally. So Craig's setup makes some sense... IF he uses the mail client part of Seamonkey just for e-mail. For newsgroups and feeds, that doesn't work so well: you lose the "read" status for everything you got since the last backup. -- MCBastos This message has been protected with the 2ROT13 algorithm.
