swar Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 Hi, Since 3-4 days, the POP server (pop.spamcop.net) is extremely slow, so I often get a timeout within my mail client. Other mail accounts at other hosts work perfectly. I have the same problem when I try to access the mail through the WebMail screen; this takes ages to appear and often ends in timeout. Could you check what's going on? Thanks. Mariano swar [at] spamcop dot net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff G. Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 Those are symptoms of having too many messages in your account. Please see WebMail Login problems & General Slowness, First things to check. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swar Posted November 3, 2005 Author Share Posted November 3, 2005 Ok, but I tried checking other folders in the web mail, and didn't see that many mails. I tried deleting those that were there though, but each action is taking ages. Could you have a look at that and possibly clear anything that's not in the inbox? Once the response times are acceptable, I'll follow your instructions to avoid this to happen again. I am only using the account for POP mail, so was quite surprised that it would keep any messages after pooling. Thanks.
