[MlMt] mailmate Digest, Vol 168, Issue 2

[Mark Chapman]

Hi Henry,

That does sound like what happened.

I am still puzzled about why it happens because iCloud can handle a 
message of that size (the content of the message was 9 image files 
rather than one large attachment).

I finally solved the synchronization problem by dragging it back to the 
original IMAP account but that still leaves the message in an account I 
want to retire. I will follow your advice and export the contents to 
local storage.

Much Thanks,

Mark
