You don't mention which type of e-mail you are using, web based such as hotmail or outlook?
I found with webmail that you can log in from one computer in the morning, read and delete some messages, but logging in later from a different pc the deleted messages reappear and read messages are unread.

Hi polly!
This is the virginmedia help page with all you need to know on your webmail including access: http://help2.virginmedia.com/help/getContent.j spx?page=help_webmail_basics_whatitis
What I meant by clearing the rubbish was deleting any Spam and other unwanted stuff. See how you go after this.

It is almost certain to be a very large message which someone has sent you, and this often happens where people send photos from digital cameras which have been taken at high resolution. You haven't said which type of connection you have - is it dial up or broadband? Some ISPs set a maximum file size for emails over which you probably won't be able to receive the original mail.
