And I guess that you wait until the Connection Centre is done before clicking in the Mail Ticker? ;). Also, if you have any spamcontrolplugin you could disable that, but I guess that if so you have already tried that...

Yes I find it's OK in 3.62.x but I can't use that at the moment because the templates for new messages from common folders is broken! I was hoping someone would have a fix that was temporary.

I had problems with this in the past, 3.62.x and/or switching to
Bayes Filter Plugin made the problem go away for me.
I have had hangs since but only if I do like this (not every time ;{:
1. Check mail
2. Mail is being downloaded and filtered.
3. The first mails appear in the Mail Ticker.
4. Double click on the Mail Ticker before the Connection Centre is
"done", and then the downloading of mail just stops and I have to
close The Bat! from the Task Manager.
Sometimes I also have problems with the Connection Centre just
staying active, without any visible tasks. Just exiting The Bat! and
starting it again will fix that problem nicely.
Hope it helps ;)

I've been using TB since 2.x, and currently on 3.62.10. This hanging connection center thing has been around for a while... I've narrowed this down to an issue with how TB handles netwok connections (duh, right?). Using a VPN, I've been able to reproduce these symptoms on demand. Because of how the VPN works, I haven't been able to turn a packet sniffer on it to see what is really happening. All I can tell is that, for me, the hanging connection center will happen if the network connection is in a transitory state: the vpn is being setup or being torn down when TB hits the network. This is a case where the network seems ok, but it really isn't. Knowing/Assuming this, my workaround is to ensure the network connection is always solid through the use of proxies. I have 1 pop account that goes through k9 and then a ssh tunnel, and 1 pop and 1 imap through a proxy which then hits the vpn. If the connection center ever hangs, I can either stop the ssh tunnel or k9 to unwedge that account, or I can restart my local proxy to unwedge those accounts. I've been using this setup for about 3 or 4 months now, and I haven't had to force quit TB.

I have had to use Task Manager on a regular basis, since TB! would hang every time I downloaded. I have upgraded, downgraded and upgraded again. I am delighted to say that my current version (3.62.14) - so far, anyway - is doing extremely well. Don't know anything about 'template functionality' though.

TB won't close after connection centre hangs
I have, as sig says, gone back to 3.51.10 because I need the template funstionality that is broken from then on. However, I now have the problem that comes with that version: The connection centre hangs on random accounts and the process cannot be aborted. The only waiy out being to kill TB service in the Task Manager. Was there ever a 'fix' whatever identified for this problem or did it just 'go away' with the next version? -- Marten Gallagher Annery Kiln Web Design www.annerykiln.co.uk Using The Bat! 3.51.10 with POPFile 0.22.3 on Windows XP 5.1 Current version is 3.62.14 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
