Some Xterm, some Putty. No, in an enterprise environment, you have standard tools. People don't get to choose their applications based on preferences, or if you do allow that, it is their own responsibility to deal with those applications which are outside of the standards. > Re-download the entire mailbox.

Let it replicate in the background or on demand to their local system, rather than having mailboxes backed up from every single workstation. -spp _______________________________________________ Tech mailing list [email protected] https://lists.lopsa.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tech This list provided by the League of Professional System Administrators http://lopsa.org/
