It would be nice if it didn't disconnect from some of my POP accounts. This could be due to Eclipse's service, although they do work as designed in Thunderbird.

Never seen that... though occasionally it "forgets" a password for one of the accounts on startup

This something that constantly happens. Except that it doesn't actually forget, but rather forgets that it knows. Try just cancelling the message next time it appears. All should still work OK.

Argh - that wee password problem - Alas I remember it all too well Normally it's my Virgin ID but very very occasionally Gmail.

Before I went to 10.5.6 I had the occasional unexpected quit of Mail - but they really were few and far between - don't think I've had any since . Software update tonight only gave me the Aperture / RAW etc one.

Mail used to quit on me at least twice a week... though the iMac is on 24/7 and it never happened on the Macbook.

Fingers very firmly crossed...

Dammit, it just did it again

Might be worth trying Thunderbird - assuming thats stable on Mac...

My usual browser is Opera, so if I do switch I'll go for that one first... might give it a try on just one account after the holiday period.

Hmmm - not had any recent quits from Mail - my problem is an NTL one - their email seems rather flaky at times .

II'll get stuff in and hit reply instantly and the reply just will not go through NTL - eventually Mail asks me if I want it to go from Gmail and it will go that way - most odd .

As for NTL's webmail revamp - don't start me - can only use it with Safari
