Another meta-question, where can I find a straight-forward description of imap, without the enthusiastic pushing? What is it? Not in some narrow sense, but what is involved in 'being an imap user'? I suspect it is more complicated than the pusher would have one believe, but ... I don't know. I sense that it is useful to people who travel. Is that its main feature? -- Paul E Condon pecon...@mesanetworks.net
