Re: [Nmh-workers] Email access while traveling?

I haven't looked for an nmh-droid app.  If there is such a thing,
I would bet that someone on this list wrote it.

What do you people do in such circumstances?

I do something strange; I use AFS to access the same set of mail folders
whereever I am (I call it a "poor man's IMAP").  Works reasonably well.

There actually is an AFS client for the iPhone, which doesn't help you
on Android.  Also, I can't imagine really how you'd use nmh on something
like a phone; those clients are specialized.

In a perfect world nmh would have IMAP support built-in and you'd just
access the same folders with two different clients.  But that's a pile
of work that no one has yet really tried to tackle.  Barring that Lyndon's
suggestion is probably the most practical one.
