Can we talk sometime early today about this? I am not sure you and I are on
the same page unless I am miss reading all of these threads. I am 99% sure
it is blowing up in HijackGetIp() and 95% sure is it this line...

c = *env.databodystart;

To work this out, I really need to speak with you rather than email pls. It
would be much faster and I can pick your brain...

Thanks

-- 
-- Just to let people know a bit about this -- the source of the crash was
-- identified pretty quickly.  And a change could have been made almost as
-- quickly to prevent the crash.
-- 
-- However, in this case, the D*.SMD files (the ones containing the E-mail
-- body) were disappearing -- a situation that should (in theory) never
-- happen.  There are causes for this (such as an on-access virus scanner),
-- but they aren't very common.  So my advice was that rather than just fix
-- the crash, further investigation should be done to determine why those
-- files were disappearing.  That way, we can have a new release that fixes
-- the crash without running the risk of people noticing a new problem (that
-- they weren't seeing simply because the crash occurred).
-- 
-- With software, there are often minor issues that come up that don't get
-- addressed because they seem so minor or aren't being reported.  Yet many
-- times when this happens, a bigger bug appears later that would have been
-- fixed if the minor issue had been dealt with right away.  I've seen this
-- a
-- number of times with software I've worked on that nobody but myself
-- runs.  One out of a hundred times, something that isn't quite right will
-- appear.  The thought process is "Gee, it would be a good idea to look
-- into
-- that to see why it happened, but it would be a lot of work tracking it
-- down; I'll deal with that later."  With a program that only I run, that's
-- fine.  But for software that 1,000s of people are running, most of whom
-- consider E-mail to be mission critical, I think it is best to wait and
-- have
-- it done right.
-- 
-- And, to take credit away from where it should be taken (or whatever the
-- opposite of "giving credit where it is due" is), the crash is occurring
-- in
-- code that I wrote.
