E-Mail Woes?

Not anymore…
It almost felt like another job. Trying to keep email at home and at the shop sync’d up. It was scenarios like these:
Did I answer this one?
I thought I deleted this one.
Is this one saved here or there?
Now that I have incorporated IMAP into my life, the battle of the POP3 and SMTP server is turning a tide and I look as though I am going to win.
The only down side, is that with large attachments, there is a little lag, but I can deal with that. I have also experienced my first IMAP outage, but since I am forward my email to the IMAP server from a GMAIL server.
If the IMAP service is down, then I can get the email from GMAIL, which acts as a backup as well.
Why don’t I use a web client? Simple, they all suck!
I don’t wish to switch to Thunderbird, Eudora, or any of the others. Outlook 2007 has never let me down, so I am sticking with it.
