Messages on server!

Thanks!

Since they are all being downloaded over and over, the only thing you can
do right now is to keep dragging new messages to another folder and
deleting the others. With News rules, you can choose only to download
messages going back a number of days, but that is not an option with Mail
rules.

One other thing you can try is to delete the Inbox.dbx file with OE
closed. A new empty Inbox will be created when you open OE. It is located
in the Message Store where the Pop3uidl file was.

I doubt this will help, but it won't hurt to try.

When you have to deal with someone in India or wherever I guess that's
what you get. Anyway, I sent a request to AT&T and will wait for
response. In the meantime is there a way to sort these messages that have
multiples? I'm not concerned with the older ones but the more recent ones
that I haven't had a chance to go through I would like to keep. Thanks
for all your help.

I think you answered your own question in this last post. Get a new ISP!

This is the Logon site for you, but any ISP worth 2¢ could have deleted
the messages for you. Those messages should not be on the server and
AT&T Yahoo is giving you the run-around.

Any other suggestions. I even had a support chat session with a at&t
/yahoo person who didn't give me any help. After letting all 16,000
email download, and made sure the settings were correct. I opened OE
and the download started all over again at 1 going to 16,000. Any other
advice would be appreciated.

Frank,
I did as you suggested but it does the same thing. Starts the download
of 15,764 emails then stops at some point, then starts again at 1 of
15,764 meaning doubles then triples etc. Any other ideas? How can I
get to the server and have them delete the messages?

Bruce,
After a couple of attempts my messages that are on the server keep
stopping and starting over. There are over 16,000 messages dating
back to Oct 2005. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks

Create a new Identity in OE and download the account there.
Or else go to the account's Web mail site and delete them there.
