I have the same problem and have reported it in the past, but haven't got=
ten around to setting things up to get a nice concise debug log of the is=
sue. =20

It's easy to turn on debugging, but by the time the problem occurs, the l=
og is quite large and would be difficult for Rafa=EBl to work with, so I'=
ve been dragging my heels on setting things up to produce a minimal debug=
ging log that shows the problem.  You're welcome to beat me to the punch =
on this if you want :)

I'd also like to mention that this problem is definitely a Zo=EB bug and =
is not caused any particular mail client because I've seen the effect in =
PMMail/2, Mozilla Mail and MS Outlook.

One additional data point that might be of use in debugging the problem i=
s that Zo=EB only seems to hold back one email even if there are two acco=
unts.  So, getting one more email for a second account will allow you to =
fetch ALL of the messages for the first account.  This might provide the =
seeds for a somewhat unpleasant work-around where you create a bogus seco=
nd account to fetch dummy emails to trick Zo=EB into letting you get all =
the messages for your real account.
