[QUOTE="jamesdmc, post: 551715, member: 39529"] Let's say I have two iMacs hardwired to a router and a NAS device also hardwired to that router. Both iMacs have identical versions of OS X and identical programs installed. Could I set up Mail so that when I download the message from the server (comcast.net) using iMac #1, the message and its attachments are stored on the NAS and are fully accessible by iMac #2? In such a way that I can open the message, forward it, delete it, etc. from either mac? Also, can I store all contacts in my address book on the NAS so that they are accessible and editable (is that a word?) by either computer? I won't take possession of iMac #1 until late next week, but if it wins over the wife as I suspect it will, iMac #2 won't be far behind. I'd love to share as many files as possible between the two computers for convenience with the applications/programs on the local machines; the data itself (whether it be music, photos, videos, or email) on the NAS. As a recent switcher (like, 5 hours ago), I'd appreciate any and all input. Thanks. James [/QUOTE]
