I guess you don't know much about the history of email. Originally, people read their email on the computer it was delivered to. Then POP allowed them to download to another computer, such as those new fangled "PCs". POP was never intended to be used by more than one device. Simply leaving a message on the server for a period of time, so that it could be read on another device, was nothing more than a hack to get around the limitations of POP. What you're asking for is a complete redesign of POP and you still won't have what IMAP is designed to do. Also, how is IMAP a security problem, given that the entire Internet is not secure and mail servers are finally moving to StartTSL to encrypt between servers. I run my own IMAP server and access it only via SSL/TLS -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
