I don't have large messages but I have lots (av 50/day).

When I do re-connect, I just re-start PM-Mail collecting mail and off it goes happily downloading the 
rest. I confess it is a while since this has happened so I may be a bit hazy.

So I will try again tomorrow when my main mail load will be waiting for me.
