Hi, I'm just wondering if someone knows a good way to get mail in my situation. I want to be able to use a GUI client (Outlook, KMail, Evolution), but I also want to be able to access my mail when I'm somewhere else, like work. I've currently got a webmail daemon on my server, but I just don't like it too much, and would rather use something like mh or pine. I also want to be able to filter mail, like put all my FreeBSD stuff into a FreeBSD folder. Right now, I have a rule setup in Outlook to do it for me, so it's not being filtered server-side. Is there a way to have it be filtered on the server, so my mail will always be filtered no matter where I'm getting it from or what client I'm using? Also, I've got the option of using both IMAP or POP. It seems like IMAP is better, because all my mail stays stored on the server, whereas POP downloads it directly. Is IMAP the best to use? So anyways, I think basically I just want to be able to access my mail from anywhere, but also use a GUI client at home, and have it "look the same" in both situations. Meaning, all the same mail is there (can't use POP?), and mail gets filtered the same way. Anyone know the best solution for this, or have any better suggestions for the way you handle your mail?
