My grief is not about TB not reaching the mail server. When I said "30 seconds isn't what I would consider to be _very_ short intervals" I meant poll intervals between each time TB is checking thebat.IPC! Remember, TB is actually checking thebat.IPC every 10th second (unless the countdown is reset by starting a second TB). Hence, if TB is checking thebat.IPC every 10th second, then "30 seconds isn't what I would consider to be _very_ short intervals". My topic is about TB eventually failing to _read_ and execute thebat.IPC. -- St ________________________________________________ Current version is 2.12.00 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
