just create a new thread in the dopost, and keep sending as many mails as
you want in the run method. If you declare the thread object as member
variable of the servlet, it will last even after dopost is finished.
I hope it helps!

Subject: Change timeout in runtime?
Hello.
my first post to this list :))
I'm about to write a servlet that for one request is suppose to run
for several hours (it's suppose to generate and send about 260 000
mail).
Is it possible for me to change timeout on the servlet when it
realizes that it's not gonna make it in time? in runtime i mean.
i.e.
if (it's 2 minutes until timeout and i have 200 000 mails to go) {
set timeout = 1 hour ahead;
}
OR
Is it a better way to do what i describe? i wanna avoid setting
timeout to 24 hours just to be sure...
all help and suggestions is welcome!
Best Regards
