Re: Web Mail?

There's a big DUH!-- Ssshhh, you'll put some commercial servers out 
business with that idea! Surprised that isn't done more widely, it 
wouldn't be unreasonable to insist a browser be Javasized.  All the 
server would have to handle then is normal mail stuff and a printout of 
what messages are present in the users mail box.  I guess you could also 
add some data to each message to support folders & what not, as well as 
do automatic compaction of the mail boxes.  Hmm, ya know, this is 
probably what clio does. . . .only this would run in Netscape (or is clio 
a Java app?).
