My German isn't quite good enough to be sure I understand Traumwind and Andi, but I have tried Oddpost from here and it is startlingly fast. And the idea of `one place for EMail' regardless of which machine you happen to be on at the moment is also a good one. However, that machine had better have a 100% availability (or nearly) or it will be more of a hinderance in the access process than a help.

Also the `management' facilities seem to be nothing of particular interest, and if you think about it the `random subject generator' that they tout would surely play havoc with someone who was using Six Degrees to manage their mail.

So far it looks to me like Zoot is probably one of the few `interesting games in town' to help manage EMail. I just don't think that things that depend on the Subject header are likely to (ultimately) be very effective...
