 Disconnected IMAP
 =================
 
-So, in an effort to get to the office earlier, I decided to try to\
-figure out how to do disconnected IMAP. Well, the route I took was to\
-use a tool called \<a\
-[mailsync](http://mailsync.sourceforge.net/) which is a cool\
-tool to allow you to sync IAMP mailboxes. So, my tack is to sync it\
-down to my laptop, and read the email on the bus. I sync email down\
-in the morning, and then in the evening, sync again. So far, so good.
