    I've heard that GMail can cause a few "issues" on mailing lists, 
however in this instance it seems to work. I previously used a pop3 
account provided by my ISP and it worked fine for ages. However, they 
recently joined forces with another company and from about that time my 
account has turned to crap.

    I just changed to my Gmail address and you've replied, so 
something's working properly. I thought I may have had a problem with 
either Gmail or the add-on I use so I can access webmail via 
Thunderbird, but it all appears to be OK. I still have no idea what went 
wrong, but I'm happy with the outcome and appreciate your words of 
caution. At least now if random problems occur I have an idea of where 
to look.

Thanks for your help,
Ken
