Of course. I first just need to get my Linux skills up to par, then talk 
my sysadmin into letting me intercept the incoming mail on the corporate 
server ports, then learning how to grab it with fetchmail, and lastly 
explain to my boss why I need to replace my 10 Gb HD with a larger one. 
Should be fairly easy - I'd probably be on that scheme by Fedora 5's 
launch.
