Good point. And that _will_ be an issue, given that there's no 2IC to call in to work if something goes wrong while I'm unable to access our systems. > And also having one e-mail address that > deals with all your important mail rather than all the list traffic > you don't necessarily want to read urgently. IMAP is a good solution to that :-) I have a "priority" mailbox that some recipients get filtered into on the server side. All lists are automatically filtered into the appropriate mailboxes server side. Most spam gets thrown in a Junk folder - on the server, by the server, on delivery. So if I'm on a low-bandwidth link I can pick and choose what I access. It's great. A compressed SSH tunnel makes it even better :-) Anyway, this is getting well -OT... Craig Ringer
