hum, and to check directly the IMAP server ? I know the cost of such an operation,
but think to people who have few users and who want lots of features when they are
with a roaming access.
It seems you want to make a webmail gate for only big internet provider with 10000
people !

You're right, frame is not good for web clients but web clients are well suited
for all kinds of applications. I'm sure we can replace Netscape messenger with a
web client.

And the solution without frames, only with php but with all in one (folder view,
mail view etc) with tables? It's possible?
