835874 2009-12-02 22:47:00 Having trouble with my windows mail. Have dial-up and everytime I open mail it says it is receiving 250 e-mails which take days to download and every time you open the e-mails it says the same thing allowing only a few to download at a time.
How can I stop this as I can't send e-mails? Have unsubscribed to all in sundry so is not present stuff.

835875 2009-12-02 22:52:00 If your ISP has webmail, log into it, and see whats there / delete what you dont want Speedy Gonzales (78)
835876 2009-12-02 22:53:00 You could try going to your webmail page, from there you may be able to delete the Emails without downloading them, if that's what you want to do?


Edit, Beat me again Speedy!;):lol:

835877 2009-12-03 02:33:00 you could also remove your password from the account so it doesnt automatically start downloading the emails once you open the program. to remove password go to Tool > Accounts >select the email account and click on properties on the left, than click on servers tab and remove your password under "incoming mail server" settings. The next time you open the program it will ask your for password and just click on cancel. ronyville (10611)
835878 2009-12-03 02:53:00 See if you can configure your mail client to only download headers (office.microsoft.com) only then delete all the messages you don't want without downloading the whole thing. razzarphenix (2626)
