What version are you running? There was a bug in most 3.x versions that
would timeout on large emails when there was no interruption. Check the
documentation's change log to verify which version it was fixed in. There
haven't been any reports of this problem with 4.x TTBOMK. Of course, Sam
would know for sure.
