I'm having a hell of a time getting my imap mail through China's national firewall, even with a VPN. I'm fairly sure it's because all of my accounts are gmail, and they don't like google/gmail.
I have a rackspace server in the US, and I'm considering setting up a imap mirror there: the server syncs with gmail, and I sync with the server. The hope is that by removing google's addresses from the cross-border network traffic, I'll be able to connect more smoothly. Connecting via SSH through the server is another possibility, but SSH traffic is dicey as well, and I wonder if Google's domain/IP would ever be visible in the process? If I do want to mirror the whole store on the server, is that something that isync can do on its own, or do I need some auxiliary programs? On my personal machine I use dovecot as a local offline store, so gnus doesn't have to connect directly to the internet. I'm not actually sure that would be necessary for the server, though, as I can assume it's always online. This would also mean I'd need to keep my login credentials on the server, though... Any tips or experiences anyone wants to share would be much appreciated -- thanks!
