I just switched off 3G (no/very weak coverage at home anyway) and now I can fetch my emails again over GPRS - thanks!

with a standard gprs or gsm 2g connection the handset can maintain reception up to 27km from a base station in optimum conditions however when using 3g this is effective range is reduced to 5-9km. The 3g module is also less capable of routing multiple users and this can result in reduced coverage and download speeds.
If you want any more dull info let me know.
