 directory over from my laptop.  I got all the more recent messages just fine
 BUT if I send a message, the WIFI connection is killed completely - only a
 re-boot gets it back.  I've tried two other email clients, with the same
 result.  I hope to receive emaile the next few days, but will not be able to
 sent to the list,  anything important, I can phone someone to reply to your
 personal email address.

 First, how can I report this as a bug (what program - it is not confined to
 a specific client).  Second, anyone got any thoughts?  I'm away for a
 holiday in a few weeks, and will have to install a different OS for the time
 being if there is no solution yet.

What do you see in syslog when it disconnects?
