Are they possibly being rejected because they are too large? Many ISPs and mail providers won't accept attachments larger than a certain size, and often that is fairly small (1-5 MB, usually closer to the 5 MB). images, even JPEGs are often large these days. Too many people take pics with their 5 MP camera and then try to send 6 multi megabyte images to someone over email. They don't know about the concept of resizing the picture. >My client (Entourage 11.1 on OS 10.3.9) is set up to delete messages from >the server when they are picked up (leave a copy on server is NOT checked), >yet my account folder had 500+ messages dating back to 2003.

Yes, the server should be deleting the messages when the client tells it to delete them. Given your above info, I'd say either Entourage is failing to tell the server to delete them, or the server is failing to delete them. But either way, something is definitly not correct. Any chance your hard drive is corrupt? Maybe the files are failing to delete because the server can't delete them. -chris <http://www.mythtech.net> ############################################################# This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list <[email protected]>.
