Re: [cobalt-users] deleteing large messages on behalf of customers

["Paul Harvey" <paul@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Try using a facility on www.webmaster4all.com  From the home page is a link
to a utility that allows one to call up the e-mail without the attachments.
You can then delete the e-mail and the attachment deletes with it.

All you need to have is the username, password and the mail server name.

Saves all that Telnet problem etc.
