I have heard that Gmail's imap is non-standard, and causes trouble for clients. Opera's email crew apparently have asked if they intend to fix it or will leave it as is, with an eye to deciding whether it is worth the trouble to do a workaround. I didn't hear what response they got. On the other hand, I have a @thebat.net gmail account that gives me no problem at all. My main provider is Fastmail. > What do you think, here? I would suggest getting a free account from Fastmail and see what kind of performance you get. Servers can definitely make a difference. -- Gleason Using 4.1.11.3 on Windows XP, 5.1, Build 2600. IMAP email provider is Fastmail, which uses Cyrus server software. ________________________________________________________ Current beta is 4.1.11.2 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
