NOTE: Email applications such as NetscapeMail, MicrosoftOutlook, MozillaThunderbird, etc. have additional settings
that will assist you in automatically downloading new email
to your PC. This is referred to as POP interval time. Always
avoid setting POP Intervals for less than 30 minutes. Automatically
checking email every few minutes places a severe strain on
the University's mail server. Please avoid frequent POP intervals.
