I have tried that too but unsuccessfully, my understanding of mail servers and email protocols are rather limited. I use several emails accounts on markedly different email systems (GMail, Zimbra, some kind of M$ mail server). Trying to talk to all these simultaneously seemed extremely difficult. Also I often access email from multiple locations, home workstation, university workstation and my laptop. Not sure how to deal with that. I once tried OfflineImap but something came up before I could set it up properly and I never had the time to get back to it. Maybe when I have the time again. -- Suvayu Open source is the future.
