If *I* were the responsible technician at your ISP I'd sink through the floor into the basement, *ASK* you not to use TB! until we've fixed that s***ing server and thank you for "producing" this problem, because we now can see there's a wrongly dimensioned server answering the requests, and we *now* have the chance to correct the setup *without* loss of data. Some time later a few dozen or hundred people might fetch the mail, not using TB!, but nevertheless cause heavy load and maybe next time the server crashes and puts essential data to /dev/null. But I'm not responsible ... ;-) Nevertheless: can you figure out what IMAP-server-software your ISP is using? Maybe one can reproduce the problem if the exact software used is known and can from there on optimize TB!s IMAP access ... -- Regards Peter Palmreuther (The Bat! v3.51.10 on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 2) Finagle's First Law: If an experiment works, something has gone wrong. ________________________________________________________ Current beta is 3.51.10 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html IMPORTANT: To register as a Beta tester, use this link first - http://www.ritlabs.com/en/partners/testers/
