Depending on the POP-server software, the messages are only really deleted from the server when you disconnect with the QUIT command. If for some reason your connection is not as stable as you might think and this QUIT command does not reach the server, the messages are not deleted. The next time you connect, TB will start downloading from the beginning (TOP). Here is what I do: I have set TB to leave messages on server for 1 day. I don't need them on the server, but when I connect to download messages, TB will check which messages it has already downloaded and will not download them again. This even works if you have already deleted the downloaded message! (I believe TB stores the UIDL somewhere, but I don't know where.) By leaving messages on server, you won't receive any dupes. -- Cheers, Thomas. Moderator der deutschen The Bat! Beginner Liste. "Domino vobiscum." (Latin for: The pizza guy is here.)
