Details
I have ~200-300 messages on a account on mailandnews.com.
When I try to set up this mailbox (IMAP4) to download them, it gets about half
of the subjects down, and then freezes.
It gets half the subject lines down, so I can see them, but they do nothing when
I click them.
I can mail the userID/password is desired

(a) What build are you using? If it's M14 or Netscape 6b1, please download a
current build from http://mozilla.org/ and see if the problem's been fixed.
(b) If it hasn't been fixed: when it "freezes", does the whole application
freeze? Or it just stops downloading? Does hitting the Stop button do anything?
I have a test account on mailandnews: ID: "mozilla", password "mozilla".
telnet mailandnews.com 143 says:
OK InterChange IMAP4 Server v3.61.02 Ready

I'm using the current nightly build 2000/04/12/05
when it freezes, i mean that I can't access the mail itself,
I can go to a second account (on another server with 1000+ messages) and it
works fine.
Oh.. 1 more thing.. The sub folders on this account work fine.
the inital sequence (when I created the account) was that it downloaded 100 or
so of the 290 messages and just sat there with a 'document done'
it shows ~100 of the message subjects, and when I click on one of the subjects
nothing happens. (double clicking doesn't bring up the message window either)
maybe a corrupt file on my end ? Ive been using nightly builds for ages.. maybe
I've got a directory out of whack .. where does it store this info ?

The headers are stored in .msf files in the server directory for the account.
Lisa, where are the msf files on Win NT?
You may be running into bug http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33715
which bienvenu has a fix for.
(Richard - .msf files are stored in the users50 directory under for the profile
for Windows)
