Pmmail has gotten too slow to use!

[Mike Kilroy]

Hmm.. Wonder why all my pmmails act slow with lots of mail in
lots of folders, when no one elses does....  Not just one
machine.  My machine is a Pii-400 with 128Mb ram, 10+gb HD - no
slow poke.  Works great on all other programs.

Interesting thing I just found... I cc'ed e:\pmmail /s to
F:\pmmail and ran it there.  No delays at all jumping from
message to message....  Could pmmail begin to corrupt something
in its BAGs with time maybe?  

I will now delete e:\pmmail and recopy the copied version back
over and see if that does anything (after a good PSNS.exe
backup or course).  

Thanks to all for taking the time to tell me they are not
seeing this too.
That was needed to get me trying other stuff (like archiver,
etc).
