I've just spent another couple of hours checking over this

1. it's actually "Get all mail" and you should see that if you highlight your 
email inbox. After fetching mail once it reliably disappears from the menu. I 
found two ways to bring it back - a reboot and weirdly, a sms message arriving! 
(new email arriving makes no difference)

2. Socket error on trying to send mail - I was pretty certain this was failing 
too quickly to actually be going out and trying to authenticate. I have 
generally used the fastmail.fm smtp server on the phone - not sure why, 
although possibly because it used to just work without too much fiddling.

So I sacrificed the previously known good config in the copied qtopiamail.conf 
file that served me through several versions of qtmoko and entered details of 
my own mail server. I can then look at it's logs for information about a failed 
smtp connection - as I suspected, there is nothing there.

In summary I'm pretty sure these are real problems on the neo that did not 
exist, in for instance versions 26 and 35. That's a pity as in much else there 
have been very noticeable improvements.
