I killed them off and the error messages went away. We have been having some intermittant outages of our RR E-Mail servers recently due to a big Thunderstorm about 2 weeks ago. Whenever the servers went down, any attempt to send/receive mail would cause NS Mail to lock-up. When I exited NS/Communicator in this state, the next time it was opened up, I would get the usual message about the presence of a "lock" file. I had been just removing the lock and going on. It never occurred to me that there was an instance of NS still running :( Sorry for the "spam".... Cheers, -Don Spoon-
