I want to thank Lars and Arek for their help with the infected
email.  I must say that TB did its absolute best to keep it out
of my hands <grin>.

I am not certain dispatching worked, but shift/control/F2
definitely got a workout.  Since I download more than one pop
account from different servers, I had to guess which one held it,
or perhaps that two each held a problem email.  I finally managed,
using MailStart, to get to the most likely server to delete
problem emails, and believe dispatching may have worked on the
other server.  The tmp files have been deleted and the AV alerts
have stopped.

Nothing ever reached the computer that wasn't safely corralled.  TB and the AV program 
sure
did their stuff.  Of course, I am somewhat grayer for their
efforts <grin>.
