Ah. Yeah. My bad. OK, I have nearly six gigs in Gmail right now. There's gotta be...heck, I dunno, 30,000 messages in my inbox alone. Thousands in "sent". God ONLY knows what's in the spam trap. :) I'm going to take an empty local EMail client, point it at that beeyatch and say "open up and say aaaahhhh" one evening with the laptop on a fast pipe, and go to bed. When I wake up, I want that stuff held locally. If I have to restart the download every 700 or 900 or whatever messages, it'll take frackin' forever. I need it to suck that stuff down unattended. And I'll make sure I have enough local disk space to eat it all. Once it's synced the first time, then it's pretty easy to keep up. It's gonna be that first download that will be a complete and utter PITA. :) Jim --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
