A solution for slow e-mail connections and too many messages is to set your e-mail program to cut off messages after a certain length. As I understand it, you get the headers and whatever number of lines you want, and after reading that much, can then decide to request the entire text. Or not. Microsoft Outlook Help says the following: "On the Tools menu, click Options, and then click the Mail Delivery tab. Select the Don't download messages larger than check box, and then enter a number in the box." Cheers, Garrett

PocketMail will do that as well or give you only the headers which is what I do and then decide to download if I wnat to see the whole catastrophy (In Zorba's words....)
