Like a lot of connected tech people, I have multiple email accounts, multiple computers and multiple locations from which I connect to and read my email. The problem is that there is no good way to keep all the activity you do on those various places synced up. For instance, I read and delete a bunch of mail while sitting at my laptop downstairs. Last thing I want to do is repeat the same thing on my machine at work and my machine upstairs. When I send mail from upstairs, I want the same message to be in my sent mailbox downstairs. In theory, IMAP should solve this problem, but I have yet to find a good, stable IMAP client that doesn’t freak out when the ‘net connection is lost. *sigh* Searching the web I’ve come across a couple of tools that claim to solve the problem for a slight fee. In the not too distant future I’m gonna check these things out and see how they fare.
Syncing.net claims to be able to sync your inboxes even through a NAT or firewall

BeInSync claims to be able to sync your inbox and specified folders on your desktop with each other.

Anyone have any thoughts or experience using any of these tools? Know of any others?
