Absolutely ;) If only Evo would learn Courier shared folders and Mozilla
how to do all-in-one-screen and LDAP. And more.

I'm the admin who decides at Billy ;) And there's not much managerial
opposition to speak of. All the users get their mail on this machine
under one account name at the moment, let me think. Say Sammy wanted to
get pop mail from his ISP account, into his home directory, next to his
local IMAP account, it would be technically possible with Evo.

I think I'd block traffic out to destination port 110 or 995 in the
firewall; I've seen what my users do to waste time during working hours,
playing Kazaa and ICQ and Quake and such.

There would have to be a pretty clear agreement with each employer about
wasting the boss' time. I already have an contractual agreement to be
able to read all their mail, and run Ethereal on their traffic over the
Internet interface, so ...
