From=20their webpage: ,---- | OfflineImap synchronizes emails between two repositories, so that you | can read the same mailbox from multiple computers. It supports IMAP as | REMOTE repository and Maildir/IMAP as LOCAL repository. See below for a | full list of features. `---- I do this for three accounts (gmail, university exchange server, iCloud mail account) and it works perfectly. There are other imap sync programs as well which you could use. Cheers, Rainer > > Footnotes:=20 [1] http://offlineimap.org =2D-=20 Rainer M.
