I see several other users have the problem that new messages are not getting into the inbox on time under OSX. So far, I have not lost any messages. How about you others? I've been thinking about the possibility of some kind of inelegant workaround. For example, perhaps an Applescript could be written to send oneself a boilerplate email periodically. That would release the previously received "real" email messages. Another script could detect the boilerplate email and delete it. I'm not very good at Applescript, but it's one idea at least. I currently have CE pick up mail every 30 minutes via my always on TCP connection. By sending the boilerplate mail every 10 minutes and checking for new messages, then I'd be up to date every 20 minutes. Does that sound doable? By the way, I was one of the first 200 beta testers of AOL when it was AppleLink Personal Edition and only ran on the Apple II. I think that was about 1986. That was a fun time indeed. I worked for A.P.P.L.E. Co-op then. The AOL volunteers had some wild gatherings at the Applefest trade shows. And, for example, it was interesting to meet in person the colleague you had traded programming tips with online, only to find he was a 13 year old kid! The AOL account was free for many years, but alas, I've had to pay for the last seven years or so. If Emailer ever breaks totally, I'll probably have to say goodbye to AOL. I want my email service on my terms, thank you, but I do like AOL for access when traveling.
