If your goal is just to be able to access all your mail easily from
either of your accounts then IMAP* is one nice way to do this.  In
order to do this, both your accounts need to support IMAP access to 
mail folders and you need to use a client that understands IMAP,
e.g., the great and powerful pine.  On each of your accounts, edit 
your .pinerc so that it contains something like the following:

incoming-folders={mail.ipoline.com/user=ngeddie}inbox,
	{mail.yourschool.edu/user=youruserid}inbox

The above lines will allow you to access either of your inboxes
when you go into the pine folder list (L).  The next lines will
all you to access your mail directory (and all the folders in it)
from either system:

folder-collections={mail.ipoline.com/user=ngeddie}mail/[],
	{mail.yourschool.edu/user=yourusedid}mail/[]

Of course you need to edit the above lines to specify the correct
servers and directories.

Good luck,
