I've followed some suggestions that have been given to me, namely to start qpopper from inetd.conf with the options -s -R -T -f /etc/qpopper.conf and enabling chunky-writes=tls. I was talking over all this with my boss and I had what is probably an entirely uneducated and lame-brained idea about the timeout value in the Outlook Express client itself. Is what is happening a result of Outlook Express not sending a proper termination signal to qpopper after giving up on the download, and then trying to re-check the box? I was wondering if doing the counterintuitive thing of _lowering_ the timeout value in Outlook Express might help; telling the client to either download the mail or let go of the attempt rather that just hanging around. Any thoughts or ideas on this? All of my users are currently on 56K or slower dialups. Thanks, Rob Wright [EMAIL PROTECTED]
