However, every time I tried to open an email, the mail app would freeze- I assumed it was trying to download all those messages (but prayed to god that it was not!). So I deleted the account (on the n900) then marked all unread emails as read (using Gmail browser interface) and tried setting up on the n900 again- this time it correctly reported no new email messages--- but the same problem- every time I try to open an email- the app freezes. I can't seem to find any settings that would manage new mail retrieval... anyone else?

(With the hosted Gmail account, I can access no problem, but cannot send email)
if you are using IMAP yep there is a bug with large mailboxes that causes Modest to go away for a long time. use Nokia messaging to get your gmails pushed to you.
