I am not sure about the specific checks this person is doing, but have a 5
different mail servers that I want to verify mail is flowing through.  Some
of the time outs are as long as 3 minutes (over a WAN link) but each check
adds to the entire cycle.  Is there a way to have the check happen, but not
to wait the 3 minutes before going to the next check?  I know a
multi-threaded app could do it, but it doesn't look like SA is going to be
rewritten any time soon.  

Is there any one else who has found a work around.
