For those using any form of message storing on the email server (i.e.
leave on server), we have provided two distinct methods of checking
your server for new messages.  Blueprint Software Works's Quick
Interrogation is the default method.  This method can highly reduce
your online time by using an estimating algorithm to quickly find new
messages.  However, because it employs several features of a POP
server that are found on most, but not all servers, we have also
provided a Full Interrogation method.  If you feel that PMMail may be
missing some e-mails that are up on your server, either by fetching
or using the remote control, turn off the Quick Interrogation for
more accurate results.
