Some are IMAP; some are POP. One of the bigger ones is on a yahoo account that was started back in ~~ 1994 (or about there). It has been POP from the get-go, and I've never changed it. bp <part15sbs{at}gmail{dot}com> On 6/15/2015 9:25 AM, CBB - Jay Fuller wrote: me too...but is it on a pop3 server somewhere? ----- Original Message ----- From: Bill Prince<mailto:[email protected]> To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Sent: Monday, June 15, 2015 11:12 AM Subject: Re: [AFMUG] today's consulting fun I have something like 30GB of email.... bp <part15sbs{at}gmail{dot}com> On 6/14/2015 3:36 PM, CBB - Jay Fuller wrote: yes, i agree. and if you DID leave messages your box wasn't any larger than 2 gig. well he's at 1.8 gig, i guess he was close.... ----- Original Message ----- From: Chuck McCown<mailto:[email protected]> To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, June 14, 2015 4:05 PM Subject: Re: [AFMUG] today's consulting fun IMHO, POP3 should never leave messages. You can’t leave a copy of your mail at the post office. If you want to leave messages, that is what IMAP is good for. From: Ken Hohhof<mailto:[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, June 14, 2015 2:59 PM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: Re: [AFMUG] today's consulting fun If Outlook is set up for POP3, make sure the guy periodically stops the Send/Rcv process so it can delete messages off the server (assuming you did not set it up to leave copies on the server forever). That way it won’t start over with 1 of 54484 if it gets stuck again. And if it still can’t get past one problematic message, see if Bell South has webmail and he can go in and delete the problem message from there.

Sounds like maybe you have never had the pain of running your own mail server. We used to get this note and again. Someone needs to manually look at the message file and go to the spot if that message and manually delete it. Good luck convincing bell south to do it.
