Well, ironically one of my servers is down tonight.  it seems my ISP got
DoS and they took it down 5 hours ago, and they have not been able to
bring it back so far.

So, in this situation, I'd expect Snooze to work, but it doesn't.  I am
keep hitting Snooze every time PM bring it up.

"Snooze" stops (during an hour) reporting consecutive identical errors
on a given account during scheduled connections. If the errors are
intermittent (when a connection succeeded between to failed attempts for
example), or do not always have the same error code, then the error is
notified.

This is all good info. Thanks for posting these follow-ups to the list,
Alan and Hiro. I have a couple of clients who use .mac also, and even if
I don't see the issue myself it's good to know some tips on how I might
see it or find others with the issue.

A lot of servers block access to some of these things so they don't get
overloaded with them.

I personally have been receiving mail from .Mac mail fine, although I
use Mail to handle my .Mac account to keep it totally separated from the
majority of my mail being handled through PowerMail. 

Aha! The difference there would be my Mail is using an IMAP connection
to .Mac. Maybe they had POP issues?

System status from the .Mac homepage (once you login) shows:

Snooze doesn't work

[A-NO-NE Music]

It has been a while I noticed Snooze won't work, but this is giving me a
real headache last 3 days.  Mac.com is giving me problems, and Snooze
won't snooze it.  I have 3 .mac accounts so this is very annoying.

Also there is a PM bug.  When 'pop not there' error shows up, I hit TAB
so [Snooze] is selected, but [SPACE] doesn't engage it.  This is a Apple
GUI Guideline bug!

P.S.  Does anyone know what the hell is going on with .mac last 3 days? 
I can't ping, I can't traceroute, PM reports POP not there, but web
access is still OK.  According to Traceroute, it stops at San Jose so it
isn't my problem.

This has irritated me for a long time, but since updating from 10.3.4 to
10.3.6 (yes, .6 - I'm cautious :) it's much rarer; the network seems to
wake up much more quickly. Has anyone else found this?

I have the same problem.  I've tried selecting the "Automatically access
the network only if it is already available", but it doesn't stop
Powermail from trying to retrieve email while waking up, before the
network has been established.

It matters not whether you win or lose. What matters is whether I win or lose.

Snooze All?

[Lally Singh]

Hey all,

  So I've got PM checking a few mailboxes for me, on my laptop
(primary machine).  However, when I wake it up, it's often been
checking mail when it fell asleep.  Then i get a complaint message
from every one of those accounts it was checking.

  I try the 'snooze' button, but that doesn't prevent me from getting
one message per incoming account.  Is there a preference or something
to make it shut up?  If it didn't work, fine, log it or something.

Thanks!

Clicking the snooze button in a connection error dialog, or selecting
snooze in the dock menu when a connection error occurs, will stop
notifying subsequent connection errors for scheduled connections on the
same account, during one hour.

A great feature.
Now, to complete its superiority, can we have a log for this feature?

\(^o^)/

P.S., Seriously, I can't use it if log is not available :-(
Too much to ask?  Please?

Snooze

[A-NO-NE Music]

I am pretty sure I didn't see any mention of snooze in the readme.  I was
getting tons of auth failure on all the .mac accounts I have today, so I
hit the snooze button.

Now I get no error message but am wondering.. ur.. what did I just do?
