That link you sent me strongly encouraged IMAP if I am remembering correctly. Maybe they are using a special server. I've considered getting Gmail twice and then changed my mind. Can't remember why but I wasn't happy about something. If I decide to do that, I will come back and ask. Thanks for the heads up. I think I'll call Starband and if I get no satisfaction, I will try Eudora which they support. Of course, it could be just the windows Eudora support. frown Rita

From reading the Starband web page, I do not believe they support IMAP. AFIK most ISPs do not. If you are interested in IMAP there is a way you can get it through Google's GMail but still using your Starband address. If you are interested let us know and someone can walk you through setting that up.
