The problem with that for me, is that I get thousands of emails every
day and with the difficult interface of a cell phone, that is not very
feasible. I may just change my subscription to my cell phone account and
then read the posts via the web interface unless I am in the field.
BTW, I went out to the Sammish flats today and saw only a red tail and a
rough leg. Pretty slim pickins today. It was a nice afternoon out with
my 3 year old daughter anyway <g>. We watched hang gliders land in a
field off of Chuckanut instead. ;^)

Subject: Web enabled phones and email notification of rarities

I use my ATT web-enabled phone daily to access my POP3 account at
Wolfenet.com. The email client at home (Outlook) is set to leave
messages
on the server for 2 days where they are accessible to me while I'm away
from
my PC. Two days after they have been read from my PC, they are deleted.
This works quite well.

However, larger email posts are not readable on my phone. I don't know
what
the size limit is, but an error is produced for large posts, especially
when
the reply includes the original post. This is one of the reasons Tweeter
owner, Dan Victor, asks us to delete most of the original post when
replying
to the group.
