Kyle, Michael, Noah and Sigi Thanks for your help. I will experiment further this w/e. I thought there was a way of keeping emails on the server as that is offered by most email clients. That is what i've done in the past just in case i have a problem and have to reinstall everything - seems the email app remembers what emails it has downloaded. james
