I meant to say something like: as a consequence of the mail residing on the server, are there any other cool things that can be done (such as making web browsing possible/easier)?
ah. that makes more sense.the biggest advantage for me is the fact that all of my message folders are stored on the server. this means that i can set up the IMAP settings and use any email program to access the same messages- for example, i normally use the iMac at home but i'm typing this on my iBook at a linux install-fest... i can also use the webmail interface on the server, or set up thunderbird, or whatever is available- and in all of them, i have the full contents of all of my folders to refer back to.
