Key systems used: - The inbuilt mail feature with secure IMAP sending / receiving. This works but then I have to get wifi access. My standby is a coffee at Macdonalds (the coffee is not bad and the wifi is free). - SquirrelMail over http. Internet access being provided by O2 at £7.50 a month. This only provides internet. This works everywhere but frankly is a bit of a pain, because I cannot read the email offline - Use Putty to link into my main machine. Font size is a bit small. This only works where I get full wifi access Have thought about setting up a VPN and then accessing my main machine over but the above works -- Henry Photocopies or faxes of my signature are not binding.
