Re: OT: Synchronizing Email between PCs

Question to the road warriors among you: How do you synchronize email
between your laptop and the PC at your office after you return from a trip?

The solution to that is called IMAP and it's decades old. All your mail,
including drafts and sent mail, is kept on a server. It's fast and reliable.
Unfortunately it's not as common as POP. Get an ISP that supports IMAP and
you'll be fine.
