Do you use folders? Organising the mail you want to keep in to separate folders instead of leaving it in the inbox will speed things up.
You might also like to consider using an email client in IMAP mode (I use Thunderbird) when you are at your normal PC and only use Webmail when out and about. It will keep all mail in sync (including sent items) with Webmail.

i dont have many emails in there, im just confused to why my squirrel on other servers is lightning fast and this one is like a snail, almost to the point of me not bothering using it as its too frustarting. i might aswell migrate my domain elsewhere and use a fast one, as this is near unusable.
in which case id be closing my plusnet account alltogether and going for an alternative isp, think im getting charged to much anyway, especially after about 7 years of loyalty and getting rewarded with absolutly nothing
cheers

At the time I was invited to go over to a beta version of something else which I can't remember the name of but when it folded I had to return to this worst ever webmail service.
I am slowly but surely changing over much of my webmail activity to another service elsewhere.
Unfortunately, this causes other problems like letting all your recipients know of one's new address and having to go back daily anyway to see if there is mail in there which I need to see.
I have yet to find out why squirrel is so slow...it should really be called snail.

Please elucidate, I can't see anything you've said that is a reason why you can't use Thunderbird in IMAP mode with your current Plusnet mailboxes.

Please elucidate,
That's a big word
If you mean for me to explain........
Yes sorry, I misunderstood pierre's gist.
I have Thunderbird and can use it to get all other mail inboxes but I need a little time to get the hang of it...It's my age, you know!

Yes, I actually worked that one out this afternoon and found it very useful.
Quote from: jelv One thing I find really cool is that you can move emails from one mailbox to another (without resorting to forwarding them).
