I could equally use VPOP3 for that purpose (that's the email server that I use on my network). However, my clients tend to be 300 to 500 kilometers from my office, so I go for a few days at a time. If my laptop's running the corporate mail server, our other users won't get their mail until I get back from the client! I've just had a thought -- what I want is to delete all email from the main account on the laptop before synchronisation. So, if I set up each folder with a short-ish "keep for nn days" setting and/or a small message count, then purge all folders on the laptop before doing a sync, that should do the trick!
