I always lock my computer, before I leave my desk. But,
the password has been setup permanently. But, when I
leave home, I remove the hotmail accoutn and only local
folders are there. But, is it possible to read it through
a proxy server or through through the transaction while
the http request while sending and receiving the mail.
