Don, I have experienced this. I tried leaving my mail on the server 2 days at a time too. But occasionally all of my messages would be retrieved again. My understanding is that this is mostly a client issue in that the client keeps track of what has been downloaded and what hasn't. I think there is likely some connection issues and size issues at play though in updating the client-stored list.
I finally gave up on this method and moved to a copy account which I usually manage from web interface. Terry Fritts Monday, May 20, 2002 you wrote: DS> IMail Forum is OK.
