What about sending biggish files from the mail client to Imail, has
normal speed?

It's an easy job.

well POP3 sucks. I doubt if it will show anything but you might turn
on POP3 debugging to see if anything shows up, but don't leave it on.

128 mb isn't very much RAM for a machine so full. I'd recommend 512
megs, given that RAM is currently in a price dip.
When POP is so slow, what's the permformance monitor showing for
memory, swap, and CPU utlization?
