Index of Subjects Hi Tom. A report of a problem is not useful to us without details. In this case, login names so we can check the two users' respective accounts for problems. Being over-quota in mail and not letting the large email finish downloading is a common cause for the symptom you describe, for example. With specific information we have a place to start looking for any system problems that may have developed.
