(...) I do this too, and I find it very useful. Especially when I'm abroad. I have a list of friends, and any mail from either of them is copied to my phone. I use compression of the mail, removing surplus quotes and so on to fill the 160 available (...) (23 years ago, 1-Mar-02, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

(...) Certain messages arriving in my mailbox are copied to my phone through a SMTP to SMS/GSM gateway.

  Re: Norton Ghost vs. Drive Image vs. ??
