Thanks Allan.
I'm currently under some experiment to accomplish this kind of thing.
This thing came up from my big boss request who doesn't want her mail used
from her home which has direct tunneling connection with the office via
wireless internet.
A client-side approach actually may be easier, but it's always not easy to
tell her what to do. -- Who's the boss here ??? X-(
