I think I wrote that. By 'outstanding', I meant one that is currently active. >can there be more than one bounce-events-*.pck file that is active at a >time and is it safe to delete files that have older dates than the most >recent one even if it's not 'from today'?.... Yes, there can be more than one, but only if you have multiple BounceRunners processing 'slices' of the bounce queue. If you have default settings for the BounceRunner entry in the QRUNNERS list and for REGISTER_BOUNCES_EVERY (i.e. you haven't changed these in mm_cfg.py), then there can be at most one active bounce-events-*.pck, and it will be less than 15 minutes old. Note also that the * in bounce-events-*.pck is the pid of the BounceRunner it belongs to so if that number is not the pid of a currently running BounceRunner process, the file is dead. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
