So, if you have access to your mail machine OR a unix account on that
machine, you're off and running.

What if you're a poor slob like me stuck with NT using Netscape mailer
accessing an IMAP mailbox via dailup? 

yes, yes, the cannonical answer is "Install Linux, use a Perl IMAP
module and roll your own."

I don't yet have the time to bring back my duall-booted NT/Linux
installation <long sob story snipped>.

Any PRACTICAL suggestions?
