Loop - but that really isn't waiting.

:>Is there such a thing as a WAIT service for when holding a LOCK?

No.

Must ask - why do you need to keep the address space locked while waiting?
Have you considered other serialization approaches?

Should you use the mailblocks package and expect a response from me,
you should preauthorize the dissensoftware.com domain.

I very rarely bother responding to challenge/response systems,
especially those from irresponsible companies.
