Mac Forum / Applications / Eudora / December 2003Several seconds pause in displaying email
Eudora 6.0.2, OS 10.2.4 on iMac G4: When I check mail, there is a noticeable delay between retrieving messages and actually displaying them in my Inbox. I have checked the Task Progress window, and everything proceeds quickly there, the check and download are done in a flash -- but well after the Task Progress shows that Eudora has retrieved a message, I have to wait quite a bit for it to show so that I can read it. In Eudora 5, I recall that the msgs were put in the Inbox as they were retrieved, so one could see them being downloaded. Now, however, all the retrieval is done while I wait to see what has showed up. More of a minor annoyance than a major problem, but still... TIA for any suggestions or comments. *>UncaMikey >In Eudora 5, I recall that the msgs were put in the Inbox as they were >retrieved, so one could see them being downloaded.

Maybe it's a product of the spam filtering actions?  SignaturePeter > It sounds as though there is some message processing taking place- filters > being applied. Maybe it's a product of the spam filtering actions? Yes, I agree, you sound quite right. But I have very few filters, and have left the Junk settings at default. In fact, all my settings are exactly as they were in V. 5 -- my installation of the V. 6.0.2 update took about 10 seconds, and I changed nothing afterwards. The delay never occurred in V.5. A related issue is that when I send an email and do not wish to save a copy, the message sits in the Out mailbox for about the same length of time, 8-10 seconds, before finally being dumped into the Trash. *>UncaMikey > Eudora 6.0.2, OS 10.2.4 on iMac G4: When I check mail, there is a > noticeable delay between retrieving messages and actually displaying > them in my Inbox. I'm using a PowerBook 1400cs/117 running OS 9.1. Eudora 6.0.2 is frustratingly slow to perform any task. Any command (copy, cut, paste, quit, etc.) takes 4-5 seconds to execute. So I don't worry about the delay while the mail appears in the Inbox or Junk. I assume Eudora has more background tasks running in 6.0.2 than it did in my previous version, 4.3.
