A program doesn't work unless its started. So WinMail can't do anything
until you start it. And when you close it, it stops working. That's how programs work. steve "Judy" wrote in message ... Not downloading messages unless I have WM open. Has this been reported and is it a bug or just something they're not going to in WM? Judy |

then why does my AV & spyware work when it's not open and why did outlook
express download mail when it wasn't open? Same with MS outlook, it works without having it open. All mail client will download messages without having the client open. It's a built in feature to have the option of having it in the tray. WM doesn't have athat option. It's a faux paux with WM! "Steve Cochran" wrote in message ...
