I apologize; it's been so long since I used POP3 that I'd forgotten some details. The size encoded in the file's name is the size of the file. It's not the correct byte count, required by RFC, including proper newlines. What I do recall is that this usually isn't a serious problem, since Courier saves its results in Maildir/courierpop3dsizelist. Only new messages have to be examined for their "size" at login. So, again, details about Jamie's setup and prior diagnostics would probably help us understand why the existing infrastructure isn't performing adequately. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
