I am unable to retrieve all mail from my server (verizon.net).  I might get some
of it, one or two, or as many as fifteen.  Right now I have 31 messages sitting
on the server.  Preferences: leave mail on server is unchecked.  I have no
trouble retrieving them from another mail account, such as yahoo, but not from
my main account.  Also, although I might get some of them, when I check all of
the message are still there; i.e., those that I retrieved still appear on the
server.  I cannot get the rest of them.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.checking automatically download all message in mail/newgroup preferences
2.double clicking the get messages button
3.

Actual Results:  
I still cannot retrieve the messages.  The blue bar at the bottom right
indicates it is trying, but never completes to indicate it has retrieved them all.

Expected Results:  
I should have retrieved all messages
