    Hi David, thanks for following up.

    The problem reappeared once and I solved it the same way: clearing the cache in Internet Explorer and closing/reopening WLM. I still can’t believe those two are linked, beats me, but I’ll take it...

    If the problem happens again too often, I’ll just migrate to eM Client I think...

    Cheers!

    Hi there
    problem with eM Client is that while it's a good alternative to Outlook - especially if you don't have OUTLOOK from the various editions of Ms Office is that it doesn't (yet) support IMAP.

    If you have different devices POP3 is a hideous way of syncing email between all of them -- IMAP does it seamlessly -- and loads of people use their phones for email so without being able to sync between computer and phone that email client IMO until IMAP support is in it is rather useless like a Pub with No Beer in it.

    Cheers

    Hi Jimbo.

    Except it actually does support IMAP, and brilliantly so. It’s handled much more responsively and dynamically than WLM was ever able to.

    But old habits die hard, so for now I will stay with WLM, as long as it doesn’t become too limited in its connectivity.
