Tom,
I have Google mail on my computer and my X Y L has G mail
on her windows 7 live mail. We are not seeing any problem with slow G
mail. I'm not using the web interface to see my mail, but I'm downloading
messages either to outlook express or in Vicki's case to live mail.

We could certainly slow the aging process down if it had to work its way
through Congress!

Wow, that's too bad, John.
And, a real pain to be sure.
It would seem that there'd be an easier way, but right now, noone seems to
know what it is.
I'll keep trying here, and monitoring this thread for any future input from
anyone.
