There is an important FINAL step that I neglected to mention above--and which 
*must*
be undertaken--if  the procedures for suspending and then resuming reception 
of mail
are to work, namely, that after steps 1-3 are taken, you MUST scroll down to 
the
bottom of the "edit your settings page and *click the "save" button* that 
appears
there. Otherwise the new settings will not take effect. Apologies for not 
noting this
before.
