I've already tried mail download manager, which is no use, that's why I
need another method of deleting my emails. (Although microdot said it was
"deleting mail from server", it seems it wasn't, hence my need for another
method. Mail download manager didn't display these files so it's no use.
It's my guess that the files are somehow marked for deletion, but not
actually deleted, so Mail download manager doesn't display them, but my
postmaster gets peeved at me 'cos my allocated mail space is over 90% full.
I got him to delete the mails, so I've got a good 5 or 6 months before it
gets 90% full again, in which to work out how to get AmTelnet working.)
