Hello Ross;
My original suggestion that it was a DOS error message was due to you
reporting a message like: "Syntax error".
I have searched core.exe and insight.exe for both A1.66 and A1.70 and
find there is no message similar to this in either. It was DOSlike tho.
I will assume now that that message never appeared except in a drug
induced haze, <G> and offer a couple of suggestions based on the
above.
1) Something has gone wrong with your "@" files - possibly something
invisible to your current text editor. In place of <(null)> above,
you should be seeing sequential recipients I'm guessing.
2) Something has happened to Insight and it isn't actually looking at
the "@"file. Copy over a new version.
3) Something could have changed at your email provider. Try a different
one temporarily.
Good luck.
