actually, you make use of the IMAP filters. This works better than filtering locally, because otherwise, sometimes you are filtering with one machine sometimes with the other, and when you need a new filter, you'll need it on each machine, > If I have local folders on the home machine but not on the work > machine, moving messages from the server to the local folders will > delete it from the server and therefore from the folder structure on > the work machine (which only replicates that on the server)? It took me a minute to sort out what you said here, but yes, when you archive, it's only one place. You could work around that, perhaps by copying what you are going to delete on the first machine, before archiving on the second. Whether something like that would be necessary would possibly depend on what your quota is. Mine is 600 mb, and I've never gotten past 50 or 60% of that. I still only archive every couple of months or longer, except one mailing list I'm on which sometimes hits around five thousand messages in a month. > Quite a change from the familiar way of doing things under POP... -- Dwight A.
