It wasn't meant as a permanent solution, but as temporary one, because leaving mail on server keeps TB from downloading the same message again when the download is aborted. I didn't mention it in my previous message, but did you check whether you've got a lot of bat*.tmp files in your temp directory? If so delete them. They're generally caused by this kind of problems, but they tend to worsen them too. You've said that it's the second message that won't download. Is that always the same message? (Since you've deleted quite a bit manually.) What you could try too, is to disable both your virus scanner and firewall (I presume that you're running a variety of both), just to check whether one of them is causing problems with your download. Finally you could try whether somebody else can download your mail for you and put it in a .zip or .rar archive available for download. So your mailbox will be empty since all possible obstructive mails will be deleted. And you could try with a fresh box. Keep in mind that this means that that other person will have access to your mail until you change your password (if you can), so a certain amount of trust has to be present.

I do realize that you're using webmail (in spite of what you're stating below), so you might not have sufficient control over what's being sent, but nevertheless it's broken.
