It depends if you want it updated every refresh. Sometimes, tor doesn't build a circuit fast enough for TB3, so TB3 gives up and moves on. I imagine overtime, you'll get your updates just fine. > Hrm. So tor automatically blocks smtp connections by default and there > is local leakage of DNS by TB3.

These are times are typically few and far between. I intend to dig through the tb3 source code a bit to see if there's an option for forcing dns resolution over the proxy. -- Andrew Lewman The Tor Project pgp 0x31B0974B Website: https://torproject.org/ Blog: https://blog.torproject.org/ Identi.ca: torproject *********************************************************************** To unsubscribe, send an e-mail to [email protected] with unsubscribe or-talk in the body. http://archives.seul.org/or/talk/
