Your email address immediately suggests to me that it's some quirk of
your ISP; when I was (briefly) a member of cwcom.net in 1999 all sorts
of strange things happened with email delivery (and many other
facilities).
Suggestion:
(i) Set up a secondary (completely different) email package to access
your mailbox, ensuring _that email is left on the server_ by it;
(ii) Before using The Bat! to download email off the server, check
mail (without downloading it) using the other package.
Are the problems visible with the secondary email package?
