Now have a further developement to this problem.
Today I downloaded 132 messages but without my avast scanning the files.
I got the same connection drop error at number 86.
Restarted avast and managed to download all 132, this time with no problem.
Something I have noticed is I do not have a problem when downloading large amounts of mail from Yahoo.
Ukonline say the problem is down to my ISP, which is NTL, but as it seems to be only specific to Ukonline I am beggining to wonder if the problem is their end.
Perhaps I should point out that my messages are normally in the hundreds and the average file size is about 500k.
Apart from leaving OE to automatically connect and download a few at a time does anyone have any other suggestions, or should I get back to Ukonline?
