Customer is using OE 5 on a Mac running OS9. Lots of messages in his
mailbox. Uses the "online check" feature of OE. This gives him a list
of messages, their authors, and their subjects. If he then selects
the first message, which should download it for viewing, OE flips
out, selects the last message, and gives him an error. He says at
that point mail is missing. That's all I have for now. I'll run some
tcpdumps soon (after Turkey Day). The problem is 100% repeatable.
