Web based mail. Can we do it here? They do it on hotmail, yahoo, and even NBC is doing it now on snap.com.

There is a package to read mail on a UNIX system on a web page? The idea is that you could switch to an https connection to use the web page to read the mail. http://www.wormhole2.com/webml/

a more pertinent question is: would we want to? If you can do web based e-mail in so many other places, why bother to implement it here? Better to concentrate the time on doing things that are innovative and that haven't been thought of yet .
