[FWDLK] Mail & Anodizing

[Dave Stragand <dave.stragand@KETCHUM.COM>]

Hi All,

Just a note to let y'all know that the new web server has passed it
first big set of tests.  I'm now starting on developing the databases
that will drive the real 'guts' of the site.  Before I dive too deeply
into that project, however, I'd like to get our own mail server up and
running.

It will be easiest to provide only POP3 and IMAP4 mail service on the
server.  You'll all have to use a program like Netscape Messenger,
Eudora, or Outlook to receive your messages.  There are some nice
programs out there that support web-based email, but they seem out of
our price range ($500 and up!).  Does anyone have strong thoughts on
needing web-based email?  I will probably be using a program called
Mail-Gear that's freeware for unlimited POP/IMAP users. (If anyone has
other recommendations, please let me know - I'm open to suggestions at
this point.)

Another possibility is to set up POP/IMAP mail and use a service like
Yahoo! Mail that lets a user check other accounts (i.e.
forwardlook.net).  If anyone has strong opinions either way, please drop
me a line and I'll take everyone's advice into consideration and make a
decision.

Also, does anyone know a good solution for removing clear anodizing from
aluminum trim?  I'm buffing some now, and while I can buff the anodizing
clean off of the parts, I figured there has to be a more elegant and
easier solution.

Thanks in Advance,

-Dave
