Dear Noor, I also had a problem like that. I have detected that it was caused by wrong format of the message file stored in XMail directory - it didn't end with end-of-line (CrLf). XMail isn't able to deal with this kind of corrupted file, it causes POP3 session to hang. Davide answered me it's impossible for message file to appear in XMail directory in corrupted format (if not modified externally). But it happened to me occasionally.
If you would detect this is your case, please report here. Cheers, Roman At 12:50 20.7.2004, you wrote: >Hello, > >I run XMAIL 1.20 which I installed few days ago.
