OK. I guess they couldn't connect to the intended mail server and
were waiting since they were a couple hours old.

Do those files (the word docs, etc.) actually get opened on the
server when a person chooses to Open File rather than Save to disk?
If so, is there a way to turn that off? Sounds like a virus waiting
to happen otherwise.

Yep, there was.

Thanks Scott. That was a big help.
One of the IMW.tmp files was empty, the other 2 had close to the same
lines. Everything after the line about the MSWordDoc was in the first
file, than not in the last. I presume this is where it crashed.
