  There's no problem with the way it goes now... I get one line telling 
me it can't connect to such-and-such server, and umpteen lines showing 
downloading from the other server.  Not a problem.  One command - 
'fetch' and it just gets what it can from where it can.  I'm happy!  It 
has been working flawlessly.
  Well, okay, one wee flaw.  It seems a lot slower than slrnpull.  When 
it's downloading 20 messages, you might as well go for a whiz or 
something - it's going to be a while.  Not sure why.  It's not 
transferring all the time... it just pulls a bit... waits... pulls a 
bit more... waits...
  It's not unusable, not in the least!  It would just be 'the icing on 
the cake' to have it be a bit more... brisk.  8-)
