Only about 150 messages - even with 1 message / minute.

I have tested with different settings of "Download speed limit"
2/s and 1/s does not help. It stops after around 150 dowloaded messages. Yahoo stops the connection. You can't do anything with "groups" in two hours.

If you could download 120 messages, wait 2 hours and 5 minutes, download 120 more and so on automaticallay, it would be possible to dowload about 1500 messages in 24 hours without any user intervention.

If You could add the parameter "maximum number of messages to download in a single refresh" in the "Download Settings" and
if you also added "Start periodically" and not only "Refresh periodically" it would be easy download a new group.

It looks as yahoo is trying to "stop" automatic downloads. That is sad because I think programs as PG-offline improves the user interface and the value of message lists.

Peter,

I will be introducing new funtionality ASAP to allow you to download x messages then wait y minutes & repeat until Stop is clicked, where you set x & y.


Cheers,

Wilson.
