Re: [ProgSoc] Mail system intern

One last thing to add - even if you use IMAP, you can still delete if you 
really feel like it, but it just re-creates it anyhow.  Basically if
you've deleted it and you're paranoid about it -- don't stress.

A funny story about this message - last year working for Sun when we
started deploying CDE and the use of IMAP for mail, one of the users
replyed to the IMAP email trying to abuse them for "going through their
email", putting that email there and telling them they have no right to 
tell them they  shouldn't removethe email!

Aaah, users crack me up.
