Huh??!? Since when does where *I* am have anything to do with where my
MTA is?
I access mail via an SSH tunnel to one of my machines at home (under
"screen": thanks for the tip, Rick!) -- even if I am at home. (The
laptop's keyboard is the only one I use. And the laptop runs FreeBSD.)
Also, I run my own MTA at home. :-} (Generally, when I update the
"access.db" at home, I also do so for www.baylisa.org, and vice versa.)
Peace,
david (who has a hard time imagining using a Web broswer as an MUA)

Based on what I have seen to date, the use of Microsoft products is not
consistent with reliability. I recommend FreeBSD for reliable systems.
