Oh - if it were only a matter of having to compile up a mailer - I'd be
in heaven. But, we only have an Exchange server for company email, and
everyone expects you to send/receive Outlook style calendar things as
well as Word attachments. You'd swear that people had never heard of
just using straight ASCII..... <sigh>
Hence my need to get a separate IMAP/POP account outside the company so
that I can get a real mailer and filtering capabilities, etc.....
