If you have your mail on an IMAP server, you store the mail on the server (which can have several folders) and allows you to save and sort email however you like. That way whatever client you log in with, it'll have all your emails there, and know which are marked as read, replied to etc. I'm not sure if many ISPs provide an IMAP server - I have one with my university account; you might find you can get one if you get webhosting somewhere. This won't sync contacts or appointments - although I believe there are other relatively cheap ways of doing this; contact me if you want more information. stumo stumo.org.uk
