| No, it's the manual part of the process.  I get a message in my inbox.

Automating the sync.

In my book, fat attachments and 28.8Kb are treated as mutually exclusive
conditions.  If you do not, then you are stuck with doing everything on
your server.  IMAP, with all the headaches that can entail, is going to be
the only thing that will work.
