I have an IMAP-Server running on Atom which holds my email archive. Also depends on the Software you use for the IMAP-Server. I can not see why a N270 could not serve a moderate amount of users on IMAP. Concerning the "Atom not fast enough for compiling"-Problem. I compiled, run and update a Gentoo System on a AMD Geode LX, which is way less powerfull and it works just fine. Norman
