the older version of mailwasher used to download the newest emails first.
this was a greeat feature, for the most blatantly obvious of reasons.
the newer version of mailwasher downloads from the oldest emails first to the newest.
with thousands of emails in an inbox you must then wait hours before the newest emails arrive, so you can get rid of the spam.
who dreamt up that bone headed idea?
what is even worse, uninstalling the newer version of mailwasher and instyalling the older version does not solve the problem because if you keep your settings so you don't have to go through all that again, now the older version also downloads tfrom oldest to newest as well.
pathetic!
