Hi Stephen, thanks for the suggestion. Gmail does a good job for me,
just this one annoyance.

I can understand how others prefer to store their emails on their own
computer(s), but for me, the advantages of storing everything in the
Cloud, permanently available at any time anywhere in the world, and
not having to worry at all about backups, work very well. For example,
I have scans of my passport stored as attachments -- if I was
unfortunate enough to have my passport stolen in Azerbaijan, I could
quickly print out a copy as ID.
