Hi Jani this is the code that reproduces the bug. I've posted it to the bug db too Cheers Jakub --------------------- <!-- This is a PHP POP3 Socket Test that demonstrates a Windows PHP CGI bug which consumes the transfered data thru the socket and never releases them. Each round of the for cycle below gets slower and slower and never finishes the end. To test it edit the POP3 server variables below. Make sure there's only one 500K message in the POP3 mailbox. Then run the test. Currently the PHP gives up in the 11th cycle. On windows 9x the PHP stops running. On windows NT/2000 the PHP goes crazy, consumes 100% CPU and never finishes.
