GMX Mail Arriving Slow in Mail using IMAP

JaymeNYC · 6 Jul 2009, 11:57 AM

I'm trying to set up GMX with the Apple Mail App using IMAP but the mail is arriving slow.. its fine in webmail but not sure if its me or gmx.com.. If this is how the gmx service is can any1 recommend a free IMAP alternative? This account is for things I want to separate from my main email so i rather not pay for it..

Welcome to the forum, JaymeNYC, fellow New Yorker or Californian?

Try Gmail.com. They Offer IMAP and also have a very robust webmail interface.

Sorry.. I forgot to say I'm trying to avoid using gmail.. I actually have gmail now, but was trying out gmx.. I see some people saying its slow and I am recieving my msgs about 10 mins late when using IMAP. Are there any other suggestions?
