In case you didn't see the article in the State News this morning, you
may want to check out:

which is apparently a student-constructed front end replacement for the
current official web interface. The site is apparently using some kind
of cookie to store an encrypted copy of your MSU NetID and password
locally, in order to pass that info on to an applet which keeps you
connected to your mail and your AFS space. There is no information on
whether this is a sanctioned student project, or just a hobbiest
project, so use with caution. I'd be curious to hear comments from the
faculty/staff perspective, since many of the interface improvements are
geared toward student use.
