Revision history [back]

I configured the email-app with a POP3 account, using SSL. I observed that occasionally, not all new messages are shown when the internet connection was lost for some time (with mail-app running). Only the latest message is downloaded. I have to keep clicking "update" until all messages are there, as they only arrive one by one - always the newest not-yet-downloaded message first. This is especially annoying when you don't know how many new messages have arrived in your offline-time.

Update: The problem also occurs if the mail app was not running while no connection was available. It seems to be more related to timeouts. The connection to the mailserver, or the mailserver itself, seems to lag quite often. It always happens when I get the message "Mail is not responding" and confirm that with "wait" (or just wait until it vanishes on its own).
