It's a gmail account, not a new one, and I should point out that several other gmail accounts are connecting just fine right now. The error message is: Connection Error Make sure your internet connection is active. Anyone ever see this before? Could this be a corrupted pref file or something?

Thanks Graham. I appreciate I can do this but what I was after was something similar to Outlooks 'Retrieve mail from ALL accounts'. Even though scheduling appears to offer the possibility of either simultaneously or consecutively retrieving from all POP3 accounts, it doesn't seem to work for me. Only the default account is checked - the others must be done individually. No great hardship, but a setting to check all at one go would be useful. cheers, Chris ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Subject: Re: Mail Accounts From: "Matthias Schmidt" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Thu, 12 Apr 2007 15:54:35 +0900 Am/On Thu, 12 Apr 2007 07:40:13 +0100 schrieb/wrote Chris: >On 12/4/07 Graham B wrote: > >>Click and hold on the 'Connect' icon, and a drop down list of your >>accounts will show, the top two items will be 'Connect Again' and >'Connect...' >> >>Select 'Connect...' and check the boxes next to the accounts you want PM >>to check. > >Thanks Graham.

No great hardship, but a setting to >check all at one go would be useful. go to the schedules dialog you see there under schedules 3 checkboxe: connect on startup connect evert x minustes .... next to these checkboxes there is a button called account click on this button and checkk all the account which should be checked. or menu -> connection -> connect and then you will get a dialog. In this dialog you can check all the account to which PM should connect now.

I appreciate I can do this but what I was after was >something similar to Outlooks 'Retrieve mail from ALL accounts' Choose "Connect..." from the menu or the toolbar (long click on the "connect again" button) then check all the accounts. Then, the "connect again" menu/shortcut/toolbar button will connect to the same accounts.

A resource file seems to be corrupted; it is probably the "User Prefs" file in your database folder. You can try to restore it from a backup, or press command-option when launching PowerMail and check the two checkboxes to reset preferences.
