I *know* I've asked this before, but I still can't locate any mention of the answer anywhere in the help files, and it's not apparent from the program interface.... How do I abort the current mailbox (i.e. if I discover that I've incautiously committed myself to downloading a 2MB upgrade before I can access any of my other e-mails) in such a manner as to instruct the server to honour any delete messages already sent, e.g. for stuff successfully downloaded or detected as spam? I've tried 'Abort' in the past, and that just abandons download; remembering this, I've just tried 'Skip', which seems to abandon download and then open the next mailbox. I know there's a way to do what I want, but I can never remember for the life of me how to do it when I need it. :-( -- H. Bazley A hangover is the wrath of grapes.
