Not all mailers have this option. That doesn't give us the right of reposting people's email addresses all over the internet. You could try to demand that a broken mailer be fixed, or use a different mailer... Someone on the cygwin-talk list may be able to supply a GNUS-specific solution. > >> > I started using cygserver and edited its config file to use 310 procs > >> > instead of 62.

What I should have said (and forgot) is that I don't think changing this cygserver parameter would help at all. The problem has nothing to do with cygserver. > I manually added the line in, and rebooted, and it works fine now. But > I'll try your suggestion later. I have a hunch that your problem was fixed by a reboot (i.e., stopping all Cygwin processes), rather than changes to the cygserver configuration. YMMV, though.
