The hangs/crashes you have read about are most likely the delays that occur during sends and downloads. They are typically brief but the amount of data moving during these sessions, the speed of the PC, and the size of the bandwidth pipe will affect the length of the delay. The delay should only last as long as the send or download processing lasts. If this sounds like what you are encountering consider extending the time between mail checks so the delays are less frequent. I POP two mailboxes and the delays are 8 to 10 seconds to retrieve an average of 4 messages on my office PC and 6-8 seconds on my faster home laptop. I do not queue outgoing messages and check for new messages every 5 minutes.
As for going back to the previous version, from what I know of the differences between the two versions you could
not install v4.63 over v4.70 to go back. A clean install of v4.63
would be required. You would then recover mail data from the old mailboxes. Keep in mind that many mail hosts are requiring the more secure version of SSL that is in v4.70. If your mail host doesn't it is probably only a matter of time.
