Hi, Benny.<br>
<br>
Thanks for that. MailMate was starting to lock up.<br>
<br>
The email account in question repeatedly keeps downloading thousands
of messages & I've tried all avenues to get it to cease its
behaviour but to no avail...<br>
<br>
MailMate looks great though :-)<br>
<br>
Thanks again for your help,<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
<br>
Phil...<br>
