You could do that or you can just setup POP3 with your email client and tell your email client to leave mail on the server. That way mail is stored in two locations. Although, I have never lost any email with Dreamhost.

Thanks everyone for your help! I switched my site over to Dreamhost in the wee hours of the morning and was very happy with the email options. And email delivery seems crazy fast, too. With my old host it sometimes took an hour or so to deliver my mail. But it took a few seconds with Dreamhost. Wheeee!

So, yeah, thanks everyone.

Isn't that what IMAP is for? IMAP doesn't have the disadvantages of your scheme plus you get the ability to sort your mail into folders rather than leaving it all in your inbox.

IMAP rocks. Unless you need to store it somewhere other than your host, IMAP is way cool.

Wholly
