I've never been a huge fan of BCCing to myself because you end up with inconsistent "From:" addresses. I suppose I could just export my "Sent" folder when I return. We'll see....something else to waste countless hours messing around with :-) >Or use web access if your account gives you that. >Or get Gmail account which can be set as a pop account but also keeps all >the mails for possible future reference. I think I'd need to upgrade my mobile to GPRS or 3G to get that to work effectively. POP3's just about usable at 9.6kb/s and even then I have to watch out for attachments and stop them downloading. I guess I still have nightmares about the mobile phone bill that arrived a few years ago after a trip to Israel where, just to show off and try out the technology, I emailed a few photos from my hotel balcony to a couple of people in the UK. That was by webmail and took about 10 - 15 minutes to send by the time I'd logged in, etc. The charge was...er....not insubstantial :-0.
