This was with professors receiving up to a few hundred emails a day, including tons of attachments with inboxes in the 500 MB-1.5 GB range. (Despite constant admonitions to 'clean up their rooms' :-) Granted, no mail client manages this particularly well, but Eudora would routinely just grind itself to a complete logjam, to where one prof would spend hours deleting mail, only to have it pop right back into her mailbox. Those same professors are managing much better with Mail.app. Still won't manage their inboxes, though... (though now they're all getting iPhones and Blackberries and wondering why their mail account are going crazy again. Blackberries, in particular do not play well with big inboxes.) -- Bruce Johnson University of Arizona College of Pharmacy Information Technology Group Institutions do not have opinions, merely customs --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
