Once again, all my accounts have disappeared. > Thanks for the advice. All right. I encountered something similiar with my some of my IMAP accounts using yesterday's (31 July build): It tossed up an error and wiped my local mail. Not a big deal. It did something similar to one of my POP accounts, but in this case seems to've wiped the mail from the server. One IMAP and one POP account were unaffected. The difference? -- the affected accounts weren't those related to my ISP and used SSL. So far all seems well with today's build. /b. -- Mozilla end-user questions should be directed to: snews://secnews.netscape.com:563/netscape.mozilla.user.general snews://secnews.netscape.com:563/netscape.mozilla.user.win32 snews://secnews.netscape.com:563/netscape.mozilla.user.mac snews://secnews.netscape.com:563/netscape.mozilla.user.unix Note that you need to have SSL enabled and the port set to 563.
