I see an answer to something that's bugged me for a long time. I like
the idea of being able to read my email on any of my other machines any
time I want to. My "main use" computer is in the house, but I am often
down in my shop when I would like to check my email. Since my main
system is online all the time and set to download my email
automatically, the only way I could read it on my other systems was to
leave it on the server. With the volume of mail I get, and the small
amount of time I get in front of the computer, this would be a real
PITA. I've been trying to figure out a way to access my mail on this
machine from my others whenever I want to, and this looks like just the
ticket.
