Remote accessing other machines and accessing files/email seem to be two different things. I'm not sure files and email necessarily give the sense of it being a remote resource in the same way.

Hi there -- Thanks for everyone's replies. I do have putty 0.61, and I went ahead with Matt's suggestion.
