Why send them back at all? Keep all your messages and folders on the server |
| 9 |
with IMAP instead of downloading them permanently with POP3, then you can |
| 10 |
change mail clients any time you like with no worries. |

Even if you don't want to use IMAP long-term (even though everyone should), |
| 13 |
you can simply set up an account on some IMAP server, drag the messages to it |
| 14 |
in Pegasus, then either fetch them all down with Outlook/POP3, or drag them |
| 15 |
out of the IMAP folder(s) into whatever local folders you want them in. |

You can set up clamav on your Gentoo server to scan for virii upon receipt |
| 18 |
too. |
