Just picking this post to throw in another argument for POP you guys may not be aware of: Slow internet connection. I just came back from a province in Northern Thailand where my only access to the internet was GPRS (not even EDGE). So, I set TB! to download messages, and went to have breakfast. After that, all messages where on the computer, I could read and reply. With IMAP, only the headers would be downloaded. For each message and especially their attachments, I would have to download while waiting in front of the computer. Argument in favour of IMAP: I use IMAP on my iPhone. So I download only the headers when I'm travelling, reducing international roaming charges. If there is a message I need to read, I open that one only. However, this is not useful at my PCs, as I need to download all messages an attachments anyway. -- Cheers, Thomas. http://thomas.fernandez.hat-gar-keine-homepage.de/ Message reply created with The Bat! 4.2.44 under Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 3 ________________________________________________________ Current beta is 5.1.2.2 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
