Is there software that makes Outlook Express download emails in order of
size so you're not held hostage by some huge attachment while you just want
to see what you've got?

Not really. You can tell it to ignore messages over a certain size but
I'm not sure that'd give you what you're looking for.

Use your ISP's (? http://rd.excite.com/sp/em) browser email
functionality "to see what you've got", delete what you don't want,
and download only those you want to retain; or programs like
Mailwasher http://mailwasher.net/ can be used to first screen email
(including size) and then launch OE for download.

I no longer open OE unless there are email I want to either retain or
reply to, all my email gets screened first.

Hi !
Just use Geminisoft Pimmy to glance at your e-mails and delete the crap
before downloading them all.

I use "Frontgate MX" ( www.presorium.com ) to view and delete directly from the
server. You can also 'delay' larger emails for later download.

Another vote for Pimmy .

If you want to try a really good free email client & Spam remover ,
this is very good .

I can look at my mail on the ISP's server , delete ( spam removal ) ,
reply , click on links & if I want it on my comp , click on Move to >
Archive .
Use right click for some of the functions .

You can still leave any other email client installed . Just a matter
of choosing which one you want as default .
