This was originally discussed on this list in May of 2010, and I think this was determined to be due to Microsoft deciding to implement two protocol stacks, but no one was exactly sure. Also, this only applies to APR/native version 1.1.12 and later, but I doubt anyone really wants to use the earlier versions any more. __________________________________________________________________________ Confidentiality Notice: This Transmission (including any attachments) may contain information that is privileged, confidential, and exempt from disclosure under applicable law.
