Why does webmail on webmail.utas.edu.au seem slow?
The webmail session you are using is encrypted so that your password and private mail can not be snooped at by other users on the Internet. This encryption puts a load on your client browser which may result in slow downloads of e-mail depending upon the speed of your desktop machine. You can see that you are running in secure mode by the locked key at the bottom of the browser. Basically the faster the client machine the better reading your e-mail will be.
