At least, it works this way here. Thank you for the feedback. I notice one difference in Gmail's IMAP implementation between Evolution (now I am only using the Linux version) and Opera's M2 (now I am using that for Windows) on the one hand, and TB 4.0.26.2 on the other hand (I may go back to that soon, since all my Popmails from Gmail Pop are there as well). That difference is that in the first two, when downloading new mail into the inbox and I click on a new message, the text appears almost instantly (clicking on the message causes an instant load/reload). In TB, I generally can't read the text of newly downloaded inbox messages until the whole folder's new message texts are downloaded. Is this (above, last sentences) your experience, or can TB be set to load/reload a given message when I select it? > Synchronisation settings should be used only if you want to stay > offline for a while or want TB! to prefetch some data before you start > reading it.

Under "Manage IMAP Folders," I have most folders (except for trash, junk email and All mail) synchronizing set at "full messages." I don't have junk email and All mail synchronizing at all. Trash is set at "headers only." Does that sound all right for good use of TB? Thank you for your tips, Stefan. -- Take Care, Bob -- Using The Bat! 4.0.26.2 Windows XP 5.1 build 2600 Service Pack 3 ________________________________________________ Current version is 4.0.24.0 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
