Hello, Bill Motzing.

 I'm using a Treo 680.  Using Versamail, I find it to be slow.  Slow to
 connect, slow to get the list of messages, and slow to react to input.
 Retrieval of actual specific bodies has reasonable speed.  This is with
 POP.  When I was trying to use IMAP, it was even slower.  And it gets
 slower the more messages there are.  It's not just seeming to take
 longer because there is more data to retrieve, it is actually slower. I
 had tested Agendus Mail and for the same amount of data, Agendus Mail
 was at least twice as fast in everything.

 I've also had numerous crashes using Versamail, usually when trying to
 deal with 'lots' of messages, typically somewhere over 60 emails (I'm
 on several mailing lists, a couple of which are high-volume, plus a lot
 of spam).

 However, Snapper is out of my price range, Chatter isn't that much
 less, and I've heard too many bad things about Iambic's programming
 bugs and upgrade policies for me to be that inclined to use Agendus
 Mail beyond a few days' test.

 Notes on Fortress Construction:  13. It's wise to assume that deathtrap
 manufacturers' brochures base their Estimated Time to Kill (ETK) on
 tests using non-heroes, and test only the minimum ETK. Therefore,
 Heroes trapped in a non-instantaneous deathtrap should remain there a
 minimum of several times longer than its ETK, and even then should be
 treated as potentially dangerous until any remains are incinerated.
