I am surprised by this message. Before I started using my
mPower, I used a classic. It would take me maybe 30 minutes to
download that much E-mail. I can't imagine it take three hours,
without questioning my ISP, or looking at the connections.

Subject: RE: [Braillenote] email extremely slow!
Yes, with a classic, 350 messages in four or five hours is pretty
normal, unfortunately. I got around some of this by downloading
some of my mail, around 100 messages or so, pressing escape to
interrupt the download, pressing y to abandon the current
operation, reading and deleting as much mail as possible, then
going and getting another batch of 100 messages or so. Keep the
database space freed frequently. Also keep in mind that, if you
store a lot of mail in folders in Keymail, this will slow down
the whole process. This is because Keymail has to sort through
all the stored mail every time you add to the database.
HTH.
