All the posts are gone.. doh.. oh well, sound like a great time to mention Pocomail! Because of this terrible loss of all our posts, we should renew our vigilance and get crackin on a conduit to sync this wonderful program with our Clie's!  Just think, no more spam, ever!

*sigh*  It was worth a shot.. :)

Does PocoMail reduce the amount of junk mail through filters? If so does it do a significant reduction?

Yeah, not only are the spam filters great, but you can "preview" the mail on the server and select which email you want to download/delete/leave.
That would be perfect to avoid not downloading huge lame powerpoint attatchments that everyone gets onto my Clie and eating up all the memory..

So it's a replacement to say Outlook & Outlook Express and Eudora? Not a replacement for Mail program on the Palm right?

Exactly, the thing is, there is no conduit available to sync it with my Clie.. :(  I wish someone would code one *hint*hint* :)

Do you have a link for the program? How much does it cost?

Don't know if I'd shell out $25 since I already use Outlook, but it looks interesting. As for spam, I've been using Cloudmark (http://www.cloudmark.com/).

 cloudmark does not work with outlook express which is what I use.  They say soon it will though...

I just installed SpamNet from Cloudmark. It looks like a real nice plugin for Outlook. Thanks for the heads up, hherbzilla.

Sorry, I keep forgetting to add a link to my posts. :) The program is $25, or however much, but you can use the trial, and just have a tiny banner in the corner, I believe.
I loathe Outlook, and moreso hate all the wonderous viruses and worms that are passed through it and ole.. But I could live with using it if I wasnt completely dependant on the server preview feature in Poco. It's so handy, I dont think I could live without it now.. Oh yeah, and it's completely skinnable!

But anyways, I digress, unless I learn to code, it doesnt look like there will be a conduit any time soon..

I wonder if i can trick the Eudora conduit to thinking the Poco mail directory is it's own.. I havent tried it yet, so I dont know how it copies the mail to the Clie.. anyone have any input on this?
