No problem - in fact you responded 3 days later - compared to the delays

This sounds reasonable. I had a look into those code parts and agree
with you and am also "hoping someone else will be able to further
assist"... This would be great since it looks like some core code.
As far as I can see 'Site.getToken' is called in most of the page class
member funcs such as get, put, ... so I am confused because they all
work in my code. Do you have any idea whats the initial (first) call
of 'Site.getToken' in the code - the one that seams to produce the
problems we encounter here...?

Shall I issue a bug report in tracker on sf.net?

Hackish? You never looked at my bot code, did you? ;))
I inserted following code lines:
if not site.isAllowed('sendemail'):
pywikibot.output(u'!!! Try getting new token: %r' % \
(site.getToken(getagain=True),))
So we have to wait again... ;) (may be I have to think about how to try
to force such errors...)
Thanks for all your support and time!
