        Could it be that the connection with the mail server is slow?  If
you are on a dial-up and you are using POP3, depending on the speed of your
connection, the mail server will take it's sweet time.

Cynic, n.:
        A blackguard whose faulty vision sees things as they are, not as
they ought to be.  Hence the custom among the Scythians of plucking out a
cynic's eyes to improve his vision.
