No, it's the manual part of the process. I get a message in my inbox. I read it. It relates to project1, so I "B m" it to nnml:project1. No automation can do that. In your scenario, If I did that on the laptop, I'd I have to rsync back to the server, so that the message can be deleted from nnml:inbox and inserted into nnml:project1. Ugh. Some of those have fat attachments. Double Ugh. 28.8 sucks, but for the road warrior, it's still the norm. -- Randal L.
