Only a complicated one: running an IMAP server that uses the same
mailboxes as Mail and accessing it via MailV on the newt. Conversely it
may be possible to have Mail maintain it's folders on the IMAP server
instead of locally. I don't know much about Mail.app, so I can't really
help you much with it, but it's possible with many other IMAP-using mail
clients. I could tell you how to do it with mutt, but that's probably
not much help.

81. If I am fighting with the hero atop a moving platform, have disarmed him,
and am about to finish him off and he glances behind me and drops flat, I
too will drop flat instead of quizzically turning around to find out what
he saw. --Peter Anspach's list of things to do as an Evil Overlord
