On the Zaurus front I have found the IMAP mail client is a huge pain.
The zaurus when it accesses a pop3 or IMAP box copies all of the mail
into its inbox (imap has the advantage of course that it does not delete
it) - so now you have two copies. It is very easy to fill all of the
Zaurus' storage space very quickly.
What I now do is run an exim filter and have a separate Zaurus account
that is only 'personal' mail with a limit of 300k.
