      From: geodav@bellsouth.net              The problem is that when either of us wants to get our email it is too       easy to select "Get all messages" and since my email is not password       protected she will often download my email messages and I will sometimes       miss getting a message because I won't see that she has already       downloaded it when she gets her messages using the "Get all messages"       feature. It doesn't happen the other way around since her email account       is password protected.              Leonidas Jones wrote:       > gwtc wrote:       >       >> geodav wrote:       >>       >>> I did that, but it still does not require a pass for me to get my       >>> email.
