Yeah, I did that for a while, but I ended up making problems for mysef
due to the previously mentioned concurrency issues.  (that, and the fact
that the IMAP clients I'd tried didn't seem to work very well)

I'd like to try doing that again at some point.  I've been surviving by
running remote X sessions with Evolution running on top of mlview-dxpc,
but that's pretty painful.

Note: The UMN servers also support pop3s and imaps (connections over
SSL).  You should probably enable that if you haven't already.
