Dear Squeakers,
I've just downloaded a *very* large mail with 1291033 octets, so the
downloading problem described in a previous mail (see below) doesn't
seem to be a mail provider problem.
But I want to know more, because
- I've had this problem before with a mail from this ML,
- fear to miss mails from this ML,
- it makes work to remove the 'bad' mails from the server of my mail
provider.
So I ask again:
Did you have problems downloading the *large* 0.5MB mail from Brent
called probably
[ANN] NeoSqueak v0.1 - explicit metaclass programming
or
Re: [ANN] NeoSqueak v0.1 - explicit metaclass programming
or similar, resent date *about*

; or did you have *no* problems?
By what program do you fetch your mail?
For me it is fetchmail under Linux.
Regards,
Stephan
