15780 2001-07-19 06:02:00 I have just spent 56 minutes receiving an email of over 3megs. Apart from what seems a rather slow receive rate I do not seem to have any way of finding out how large the email is or who it is from until it has finished downloading. Is there any way I can find out who is sending the message and how big the file is other than waiting until i have received it all?

If you see a long email coming in, disconnect, reconnect but this time to your ISP website, go to and delete the offending item.
Sites are
Xtra - www.xtramail.co.nz
Clear - www.clearnet.co.nz (I think) you can work your way to the ISP email site from their Homepage.

Cheers....John
