ok thanks Wayne for clearing that up. Most of the time i remember... like today.

I use a mail client for archiving emails to CD but i have to say that i like the conversations that googlemail offers.

I do use Thunderbird on imap on one machine but just doesn't seem worth having on each machine.

"Googlemail" can be set up to send/copy to your normal mail client thats the way I use it, with a blind copy sent to a 'proper' email address. that way "Googlemail" acts as an extra archive and one can also copy ones email's onto a CD. (See Forwarding & POP/IMAP somewhere on one of the help or overview pages).
