POP protocol is safe around that, and if the POP session doesn't end properly, it's better *for you* to be able to get the messages again. You should understand why you get such network problem, and try to fix it 'cause I'm afraid that you would face the same problem w/ another MUA. As a workaround, if you are *sure* that you got that email entirely, it might be convenient either to delete the email using a HTML interface if any, or to use another tool that allows deleting emails w/o downloading them. If the email size is very big (and if the size is the problem here), you can temporarily avoid downloading it by using the relevant account receive option - of course it would stay on the server until you remove it by hand or w/o network problem. BTW, did you enable "remove messages on server when received" or "download all messages from server" in the "Receive" tab of the account prefs? Regards, -- wwp
