POP3 problem solved

[Datawolf]

I disagree about Win2K being a better desktop.  I use Linux exclusively
where I work, even though the mail server, most file servers, etc. are
Window$.  StarOffice obviously solves the M$ Office problem.  And I can
get my mail from Exchange using any POP or IMAP client.  I can even get
email addresses to autocomplete using Excahnge's LDAP server.  (I'm
using Netscape as a mail client.)

The only two things I haven't figured out how to do are (1) create
meetings for Outlook calendar, though I can receive them fine, and (2)
Visio, although Dia is a good tool, it doesn't import Visio, AFAIK.  But
I don't miss the above items at all.
