For the last several months, retrieving email has slowed down for me in SM. What
I mean is that when I click on “Get All New Messages”, it takes 15 seconds
before it starts to download any messages from the server. If there are no new
messages, it still takes 15 seconds to report back that there are no new
messages. I use POP3 and download from the att.yahoo.com server, SM 2.46 and Win
10 with the latest update. ISP is Verizon FiOS.
Can anyone tell me if the 15 second lag is normal? As I recall, it use to start
almost immediately or within 5 seconds. I have checked this on several desktops
and my laptop and the delay is always 15 seconds.
No way. It should be within 1-2 seconds at most.
Are you getting 1-2 seconds?
When I try to retrieve messages from a newsgroup, I get the same delay. Sending
an email or sending a message is almost immediate.
So, a couple questions:
1. Are you leaving mail on server?
2. How much mail are we talking about?
3. What Internet speed do you have?
4. Network drivers up to date?
5. Have you rebooted your Internet modem or modem+router lately?
6. What are your POP3 server settings? Meaning, what server name+port,
what connection security (STARTTLS or SSL/TLS), Authentication Method?
I know a lot of Internet providers are starting to clamp down on
insecure email checking.
Another thing you could try is installing Adrian Kalla's build of SM
2.48 from
https://l10n.mozilla-community.org/~akalla/unofficial/seamonkey/nightly/
from the Latest Comm Release 32 or 64-bit build folders. It is stable
and built from Mozilla source. I myself am using 2.49 beta but I used
the 2.48 that Adrian built and it was rock stable.
