After it has finished updating the inbox, press cancel when it starts
downloading the emails.

Thanks for your answer!!

As far as I know, a header takes - I guess - less than 500 bytes. If I
compare

the number of Kb received when I get my mails, this number is definately
much, much

bigger. So my conclusion is that content of all mail are downlaoded.

And that also includes all the spam-mails.

I have been using a Psion since 1996 (fiorst 3a then 5mx), and if I compare
the time it

takes to get a list of mails on Psion versus Nokia 6600, my Psion 5mx wins
very convinsing!!!

You know: old technology!!



Best regards

Søren
