Will this be manageable for large collections of e-mail messages, e.g. 300 groups containing about 100 megabytes? In other words, can I put my entire archive of e-mail into an IMAP server on machine A, then slurp it all into the agent on machine B, and then have access to the e-mail on either machine with the ability to sync this when machine B is connected to the net? Or will it be horribly slow? -- Dan Christensen jdc+news@uwo.ca
