Tom, sorry to ask a question not give an answer. I've been looking for a timeout setting in OE for a while. Reason being one of our (unfortunately) NT based customers is using Osiris Winproxy for internet stuff, and sending a large mail will cause a time-out in OE clients. Pressing the 'Wait' button 5 or 6 times gets the mail away, but it is not a cosher way of doing it. Do you mind telling me where the OE timeout values are stored? TIA P.S. Yes I HAVE tried talking them into Linux but after their $$$ investment which has only been running a year or so, they won't go for it. :( Regards, Edward. _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
