Yahoo! have a possible winner here With Zimbra Desktop which is an an Email Client Package Which I thought was linked only to the Yahoo email box for to read it online and Has an unlimited capacity storage Previously You would have to pay for this bur this is totally Free to anyone... And theres more...Keep reading... This is a stand alone client which Has to be downloaded/installed Download size(For Windows) is in the region of 38MB!(Apple and Linux optimised versions too)But you do get this capability..You can now work offline with your Yahoo Mail too. Compose Emails for later posting Only clients you can do that with currently are Outlook Express and AOL
And Even more Goodies for you... Easily set up Zimbra, Yahoo! Mail Plus, AOL and Gmail email accounts with the Account Wizard Any POP or IMAP email account can be added to Zimbra Desktop No limit to the size of your email storage It works online and offline
NOTE:The Zimbra Email Client is an open source Program ...Unknown if its any good
I like the Idea of bringing Gmail "Offline" I have most of my Forum notifications going via that Program
Am looking Forward to trying this out...Only thing that concerns me is with the email being loaded onto the Computer. Is it still secure? And how much diskspace will be used?
If You want to hang on, Yahoo are bringing a Web based Client version out ("in a few Quarters"< Yahoos "quote")Guessing 6 to 9 months? www.zimbra.com/products/desktop_features.html

Review on Download.com (Has some installation Tips) NOTE Download Links on Filehippo use the link above Download.com has it listed , but "Unavailable" at time of Posting
