This is NOT supposed to happen. Mail V remembers the id of the last
message you received, and next time you connect picks up from there.
Two things can happen to upset this arrangement:
o You press the ReSync button in your owner card's E-Mail Access slip.
ALL messages on the server will be fetched next time you connect.
o The server's UID validity changes.
This should happen only in exceptional circumstances.
If you can send me a log of an offending email session, captured using
the debug version of Mail V, I might be able to see what's going wrong
in your case.
