Hi Lars, Sorry for the caps.... I was just too tired fighting TB to notice.
"One common reason for such behaviour is that one message in your mailbox is infected with a virus and a virus scanner prevents TB! from creating the temporary file. That way, the infected mail is never deleted from the server (because the deletion takes only place after successfully importing a message to the message base) and is downloaded again every time you check your mail. " I think that's quite unlikely, as I have Norton updated *daily*, and when ther is a virus (such as our *beloved* klez) it quarantines it on my PC. Or are you saying it's a virus attacking my ISP server?? For Two Weeks?? (msgs are since Jun 14), hardly: this ISP is the biggest in the country! "Try the mail dispatcher (Account -> Dispatch messages on server -> All messages) to have a look at your messages on the server." I did that now: but other than being able to read the contents, I cannot save nor can I see any virus notification. What was I supposed to glean from that? Excuse me for my ignorance...
