Actually, let me post also a warning (since it might be my fault) for all Mail.app users.

I was not getting any e-mail yesterday. When I check an account that captures all the spam, I noticed that it had about 8000 (yes this is right) messages on the server, in spite of the fact that Mail was instructed to delete messages from server right away.
So I fired up Eudora and proceeded to erase the 8000 messages from server.
It really was not a pleasant experience nor a fast one.
Make sure you have Mail do what you want.
I'll work a bit more on that to see if I had to back up my mailboxes and proceed to start with fresh ones.
When this happened I probably had about 18000 messages in *all* my mailboxes combined.
This might have caused a problem with Mail.

Gosh, that's not many messages. :)

Eudora is capable of very heavy lifting in that department. I'm holding 541 mailboxes with 269,913 messages, and narry a burp. And it deletes messages from the server when asked to. ;-)
