Depending on your definition, not long at all.

I had it pretty much set up and collecting mail in about 30 minutes
after pouring over all the set-up options.

The next couple of hours were spent pulling in a couple thousand mail
messages into 27 folders from another reader and setting up a few
simple filters and one or two templates.

Since then, I've been off and running, while tweaking the settings to
to my heart's content.

A lot of great thought has gone into this program.

I do have a couple of things that I'm still not sure I understand
(like the logic applied to threading/sorting) and I've been compiling
a list of questions. However, there have been no show-stoppers until
my reported problem yesterday (which is now gone)

To further follow-up on this, yes, it was an ISP problem.  And before
anyone or everyone says, "I knew that", I'll expand a little.

When I first encountered the problem I checked my settings to see if I
had somehow changed them by accident.  When that didn't happen, I
fired up some other mail readers.  All of them sent mail without a
problem.  After playing for almost an hour, I decided to post my
message because The Bat! was the only reader that was not cooperating.

Right after that, I went to on-line tech support and they acknowledged
the problem on their end (should have gone there first, huh?).

What is interesting is that other mail readers apparently left out
of the headers (or the format of them) whatever was confusing the ISP.
In this case, conforming to the standard apparently had its downside.
:)

Thanks for the response and sorry for any false alarms.
