[REBOL] Re: POP and SMTP servers for yahoo accounts?
From: dvydra2::yahoo at: 27-Aug-2001 22:57
I am on a trip to Russia and I configured my Eudora to
POP into yahoo but it started downloading messages
starting with the oldest one. Without my DSL
connection it proved quite annoying. Is there somethig
in POP to force it to download the latest mail first?
Regards,
David
ps but the most challenging part was remembering how
to configure the modem to dial pulse :)
