Thanks for your answer, I'll try extracting the messages manually. There is one more twist... If I insert a Thread.Sleep(100) just after sending the message to the queue, now all messages show in the SnapIn regardless how many were sent, under this conditions it seems there is no limit (WinXP) in how many msgs can show.
