Thanks for bringing that feature to my attention.  It may be helpful
in other circumstances, or if I wanted to have an interim dual-system
period where my email went to OE *and* gnus.  I've decided to have
flash cut with no dual-system period.  Therefore this feature doesn't
help me.  It will, however, be nice when we travel separately since we
share 1 laptop.  That feature will allow us to use public internet
terminals and the (slow, annoying, but useful) browser interface to
email.  In *this* case, having email in 2 places would be a helpful
feature.

Thanks,
Michael
