Sorry, I only "leave on server" when using the laptop ... that way,
my desktop always gets the mail so all my archive folders will have a
complete record.  

That's one of the reasons I mentioned my similar problem ... since
mine seems to clear up if I dump the spam using webmail access
offered by my attglobal.net ISP, it may be a clue that it's not
necessarily large messages but something else unusual about the
message or attachment that's causing the problem.

It's also possible that it's somehow related to the "leave on server"
status or to the PMMAIL version difference since it's never happened
on my desktop.

Hope those clues help someone figure out what's up.

I'm not familiar with Vice-Versa, and just thought it would be easier
to use the "leave on server" while travelling with laptop to assure
my desktop stays in synch.
