I took my problem to the Genius Bar at Apple, but without any help. The
genius didn't know what Fedora is and even though we could clearly see
that turning on Mac Mail was causing the Evo I/O timeout (at least
intermittently), he claimed that since there didn't seem to be any
problem with the Mac he couldn't do anything.He also kept saying it was
probably a problem with my POP accounts....

I'll try resetting the wireless router and also get a newer modem
(especially since somewhere TimeWarner started charging me $5 or more
per month modem rental for an old 5101...).

"but it certainly seems like packets are going astray." How would
anything that Airport or Mac Mail does cause packets to go astray? It
seems like somehow Mac Mail is continuously sending and thus clogging
the mail-receiving ports (995).
