I have uninstalled and reinstalled all the mozilla companents from the CD's since this problem occured.
I have just managed to use my parents Windows machine to read my email via webmail.
After reading it, I decided to download the odd 4x messages I had selected to keep. I started kpp, logged on using my fresh install of Mozilla mail and waited to see the messages appear.
Alas all I saw was the number received going up but no messages appearing in te Inbox or the subfolders.
So now it brings me to a total of 190 unseen messages that I have been unable to read because a 'stable' release of Mozilla Mail supplied on the installation CD's doesn't work like it should!!! Considering I am expecting at least 5 VERY important messages regarding my pending employment, this shit doesn't go down well!
I ask the question again, Where ie which folder etc/ether are my UNREAD
messages that I have downloaded over the last 2 days? Can they be
recovered so that I can read them or should I just give up on something I have supported for over a year, linux, and move onto a more 'stable' and user friendly system like Windows. Where can I find information on what happened to the downloaded messages?
sorry for the rant but i am REALLY pissed off with linux/s right now. I am unemployed and really need the work one of those emails could have been about. I cannot afford to have my machine looked at by an 'expert' linux fundi coz I can't afford it, period.
Your help is appreciated and I'll try to get the 9.2 release tomorrow hoping it will fix the mail error. Somehow though I don't think so as not even an uninstall and reinstall of the current version helped.
