Here's what you do. As you know, when you download your email, you see what message you're on, right? Well, when you get to around 50, hit Space with E. That's the "abandon email session" command. Now you get tjo options: "finish current operation" or "hang-up immediately". YOU DO NOT WANT to HANG UP IMMEDIATELY!!! You want to hit C, for "finish current operation". What happens is, the BN downloads the particular message, and stops. Now, you onln have 50 messages to deal with, instead of 600, and there are 50 less messages on the server. A little time-consuming? Yeah, but so is downloading 600 messages, not being able to delete 'em, and perhaps corrupting you email foldgs, which means ya gotta do a lot of other stuff. So, there you have it! A little knowledge, straight from the shelf; This is some stuff I've used myself! God bless.
