Perhaps it's time to re-evaluate how you use email. ;-) The entire point of Gmail is "read anywhere, search your email easily, never worry about losing it." You seem to be doing an awful lot of work to avoid enjoying any of the benefits Gmail was setup to provide. This is akin to buying a house and never moving in, living out of your car instead, but not renting the place out, either. -- Chris "I trust the Democrats to take away my money, which I can afford.
