I'm actually trying the opposite of your last suggestion. I use Evolution on my home pc. What I'd like to do is ssh to my home pc and have access to a console email client to avoid setting up anything on any remote pc (putty should be all I need), considering I can't install anything on lab computers at the university. >From what I gather from what you suggested, I could setup something like fetchmail on my home pc, point Evolution and Pine/mutt to pick up mail from it instead of my real pop servers, and everything should work fine? If that's possible, then I could avoid replacing Evolution with Pine/mutt just for this purpose..
