Most any server, no matter how small, will have the option to view your email on their web page. Once you are there, you can delete the large messages- they should have the size of the messages on them, by the subject/sender etc info. Once the large pictures are gone from the web page, you should be able to download the rest of your mail with no problems. </FONT></P> <P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Having slow dial up myself, I have to do this frequently.</FONT></P> <P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Laurie Brown, Dark Phoenix<BR><A href="mailto:lauriebr@netw.com">lauriebr@netw.com</A><BR><A href="http://www.associatedcontent.com/user/103910/laurie_brown.html">http://www.associatedcontent.com/user/103910/laurie_brown.html</A></FONT></P></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
