Hi,
Is there a regular way of turning off a mail source temporarily or I have
to write a function that regenerates mail-sources whenever I want a change?
(The problem is that one of my mail service providers is a bit unreliable
and connection to the server often fails for a period, and then it comes
back.)
Thanks for any ideas,
--

Go to the server buffer and press `D' (deny) on the server. Press
`O' (open) when you want to enable it again.
