I just leave it running when I'm gone, else it piles up in my verizon box and I get unsubbed from everything. But kmail tends to forget to do the fetching after a while, so I now have fetchmail delivering it to the local spool, which has quite a few gigs free. >Da Missus hereabouts isn't a computer jock, either, but since she >(and I too, truth told) have a certain liking for the various >Hoyle Packs, we have to have her running 98.
