 Good Advice Robert, thanks!

the same problem. They do seem to come in clusters, so I would chalk it up to
DB problems on their end. I *do* however follow their advice and actually wait
ten minutes before I keep hitting the server, and I find that they really do
need a couple of minutes to resync or whatever on their end.

But to recap, I've had this error for years, affecting about one mail session
every month, and given that I read about 120-160 emails a day and write about
15-20 over the span of maybe 10-12 user sessions daily, it gets in my way about
0.3% of the time, so I can't complain about the service in general.
