Re: [OpenBD] Strange behavior with cfimap

['Alan Holden' via Open BlueDragon]

Hi Rawk; I've been using OpenBD's CFIMAP tag to do something very similar (bounce checking) - and have not seen the error you describe. But then, my tag has a plain text SERVER attribute - not a dynamically generated one. So I would first suspect that your variable application.systemConfig.emailServerIpAddress is occasionally null or blank. When? You could examine the timing of those errors again, and see if they are spaced anywhere near or beyond your Application's timeout setting. Could it be possible that - if this task were the first thing to "wake up" your app from a timed-out state - this variable may not exist yet (or be blank - if blank is a default in your code)? HTH, this was just the first thing I thought of...

How/why would this happen?  Why does cfimap only sometimes want a server attributes?  And if it wants a server attribute instead of a connection attribute, why isn't the "listmail" action throwing the error? This has been going on for years in both versions OpenBD 2 and 3.  It's not a critical issue by any means, but it really makes my brain hurt trying to figure this one out. -- -- online documentation: http://openbd.org/manual/ http://groups.google.com/group/openbd?hl=en --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Open BlueDragon" group.
