I need to access my mail boxes from two desktops on a local
network,  windows and CentOS.
Why not use soemthign like thunderbird and connect to the mail
server  with the imap protocol? Maybe i am missing something here.
Thank you for answering.
It would be very interesting to her what others do when they have
multiply smtp accounts and multiple access are needed.

imap (as opposed to pop) works directly off the server, so unless you
go into "off-line mode" there are no synchronization issues and mail is
only deleted on specific user action (unlike pop which is generally set
to delete on download).

Thanks for the answers, I agree that imap may be right, but my dns supplier has a quota at 40MB. I like to keep my mails, additional to my privat I am following several mailing list, separated, so the quota is way to small. I feel like the best for me is to move my domain here, setting up my own server. I have been using djbdn and qmail earlier, but would like to change to something more standard, I should manage though, but I am a little afraid of the work load setting things up.

So my question at the moment boils down to, witch supplier of dynamic dns service to use, that also mx forward without to many restrictions.

Thanks
Kai
