Hi Jonathon,
                 I like it as it is. Once a message has been
cleared, it should dump out to the whole list, one shot.
The inbound messages I assume go to a buffer disk area for Terry to
clear, once done it is available to send next cycle.
So, the load is on the system twice, one in , one out.
Once it is our own mailboxes, the load is off the system and it is
free to be available for the next messages.
Also, it may be serving the old message base for people that
research, unless that is on another machine.
The existing system reduces the need for all of us to come and
connect to the server for new messages because they are already at
our ISP server waiting for the next email poll (I poll every 1 minute).
The system you speak of would require everybody to connect to the
server, spend time on it looking at and reading messages, making
reply, etc. This would add up to a lot of connect time per person and
multiply this times 1500 people.
