I would agree that, on the surface, a POP daemon should lock the object 
it's working with as a "non-reentrant, critical section".

Sorta related:  in Imail4, I remember having pb's when I was working with 
web messaging into my maiblbox when my Eudora (on same machine, don't ask) 
would wake up and check mail of the same box.  This would cause my mailbox 
to go into a funny state, sorta inaccessible, I think, it was a while ago. 
I have not tried the POP concurrent with Web messaging in version 5 and I'm 
holding off on installing our purchase V6.  'tis the season to be prudent.

 >when these things happen, users can not read mail (Smart-pop it's called 
in FtGate) and the logfile shows a R:0 D:0 P:0 for both sessions, and then 
a "send error 10054" on the users IP (from where both sessions were happening).

That sounds pretty screwed up, dudnit?

Pardon my Flemish, but "dans queue" for being so polite today!   vbg
