[OU] Mail Account "Freezing"

[Hugh Burns]

Hi,
My email was in reply to "Ledgem" who reported the "freezing" of
one of his five mail accounts.

I have done what you suggest severals times before,
and it works. No big deal for me to do so.

Will look at upgrading to more recent version of Opera.
Tend to stay with what is working unless a problem prompts
upgrading. Seems some upgrades amount to beta testing.
Prefer to "not fix what is not broken."
But, thanks for suggestion.
Raleigh
