[pmmail-list] Incomplete email downloads

[Marty Rimpau]

Hi, speaking about incomplete downloads, first, is anybody using pm
mail version 2717 with Norton 2001?  The reason why I ask is because,
in past versions of pm mail, when I would get prompted regarding a
virus, I always would get knocked off the smtp server, so had to set
Norton to automatically delete the offending attachment, and wonder if
this has been addressed in this current version of pm mail, or, is this
a problem with Norton definitions causing this, and if so, is there a
way to correct this, because, it would be benificial to know, when I
get a virus message, what type it is before I delete it.  On Mon, 09
