aacu> How I would I do that? If you are talking about the TCP/IP modes listed under Network and Administration, I don't think that relates to what you were discussing. (I could be wrong) What you are asking about is how to access a single mail base from more than one machine. The only protocol that provides that is IMAP. Anything else would have some issues. If you still use POP, then you'd have to access the same files to have the same effect. If you were away for a week, I guess you'd need to copy all the mail base files and take them with you first. And when you returned, you would copy all the mail base files back. I don't think too many people do that. But you'd then have everything the very same in both places. I guess you want to try out all the options. And see what suits you best. And if there seem some shortfalls in how it works out still, you can pose them. With the speed of wired and wireless networks these days, things are probably not too constricting. Just try everything. You were saying, how you had it, that outgoing mails were filtered to the Sent folder. It sounds like where most people would want them placed. -- Best regards, Adam ________________________________________________ Current version is 2.11.02 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
