With the stock AOLserver 4.0.5 on Windows XP (running inside VMware on
Linux), I'm seeing a problem where sometimes AOLserver will not shut
down.  It gets this far in the log:

[24/Jun/2004:16:16:28][3636.1652][-main-] Notice: nsmain: AOLserver/4.0.5 stopping

but then keeps running indefinitely, and must be kill -9'd (well, the
Windows "Terminate Process" equivalent) in order to get rid of it.

The problem seems to be triggered by running ns_sendmail.  If I've run
ns_sendmail at least once, AOLserver won't shut down.  If I have never
run ns_sendmail, it shuts down fine.  In this case, I have AOLserver
configured to use a Linux box across the net as its mailhost, and the
email does get delivered just fine.  I do NOT see this problem on
Solaris.  I didn't try it on Linux.

This sounds superficially similar to the Bug #667651 where AOLserver
wouldn't shutdown after running scheduled procs.  The fact that it
only seems to happen on Windows is suspicious, though.  Anyone have
suggestions of what the problem might be or where I should start
looking for it?
