When you are connected via a fast line, it's easy to overlook problems for dial-up connections.
I have therefore disabled my broadband and tried a modem connection, with the following problems:
Problem 1:
You try to check mail when you're offline, and nothing happens (only waiting for connection).
Solution suggetion:
Bring up the 'dial-up dialog'.
Problem 2:
You choose to load a message for preview, but overlook the size of the message (message contains a 3 MB picture attachment). The message takes a looooong time to load.
Solution suggetions:
1) Dont't load attachments (if possible).
2) Function (key) to abort loading.

But in this case your mail box can be locked for some minutes 
In the next version I'll add button to cancel loading message.
