I'll second the IMAP angle.

I have my own server. Have had for many years, in fact. One of the early things I did with it was setup an IMAP server. Best thing I ever did with my email. (And the second best thing I did was setup a webmail service.) Desktops have come and gone, been upgraded, re-installed, email clients changed several times. Never lost any email. And the Maildir format on the server is extremely easy and robust to move to a new server, as has been done a few times, too.

Postfix + Courier + Maildrop + SpamAssassin + Roundcube

...makes for a dandy mail solution, at home and away.

Setting up a Maildrop on Ubuntu or Debian. - (Another Scott) - (12) - June 26, 2009, 10:37:22 AM EDT

Tempting, but... - (Another Scott) - (3) - June 26, 2009, 09:19:05 PM EDT

Is it *REALLY* that important... - (folkert) - (2) - June 27, 2009, 02:41:02 PM EDT

Hit a nerve, did I? - (Another Scott) - (1) - June 27, 2009, 03:18:53 PM EDT
