Everyone said rsync, and everyone was right. Boy, that's a cool
program.
Here's another dialup/sync question:
At work, I get email from /var/spool/mail/billw. At home (dialed in)
I don't have direct access to that file, without telnetting and
whatnot.
When I'm dialed up from home should I find some way to access work's
/var/spool/mail/billw directly, or should I coordinate with a running
emacs+gnus on my work machine? After a quick skim, it looks like
Kai's stuff at
<url:http://www.gnus.org/list-archives/ding/199812/msg00614.html> does
that; is that still the state of the art?
Many thanks!
bw
