What's happening is that you're deleting messages you've read. If you don't delete them, they won't be downloaded a second time. Apparently the BS will ask the pop server for messages you've deleted.
This eventually means that you have a mailbox with thousands of messages, and you have to figure out what to do about that. After 1000 messages, I like to spool my email on my netbook (which deletes email from the server) and then delete all messages in the BS's mailbox. ----- Original Message ----- From: Vicky Collins <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Date: Thursday, May 13, 2010 21:54:08 Subject: [GWN] emails downloading a second time > > > I mostly have used my VS around the apartment for quick downloading of email, > or more likely to visit web sites, as the Sense note takers seem to work a > bit better with the web than my mPower or PK.
