Same here.  I'd be happy if manual sync worked to get around this issue but 
most of the time it says Sync Disabled No Network.  And no amount of 
manually refreshing or hitting the sync button will sync new emails.  I've 
gone all day trying this work around with no new mail able to come in even 
though I can see it out on the ISP's website.

Wonder what is another email program that would be good to switch to for 
replacing K9 since they don't care to fix it?

Thanks,
Cindy
