Now I've got it set up with IMAP.  Although my stupid ISP doesn't offer IMAP so I'm using a different email account but still have to use the ISP's for SMTP.  I hate that!  What ISP doesn't offer IMAP in this day and age. rant rant rant.

The problem is, even though I am deleting email after I've read it, I am running out of storage (eMate 300, not external storage card) as if I didn't delete them.  I've checked "All Items" to be sure and there is nothing in my In/Out box whatsoever.  I have SBM Utilities and have from the cleaner which reclaimed about 47kb but prior to receiving list emails I had over 200kb free and haven't installed anything since.

Ron:
You can stll use POP...just be prepared to "defragment" often.

Another idea is to find an IMAP ISP (such as Gmail) and forward that email to YOUR ISP, with like a "vacation" setting or something similar.
