I never use screen savers.  In my opinion they are unnecessary these days.
Have never seen screen burn-in on modern monitors.  Eliminate the overhead,
and the headaches.  Cute isn't worth it either.

Subject: R:Mail question


In using the R:Mail utility it appears that the screen saver prevents R:Mail
from completing its operation.  Each time that it has run with the screen
saver on it won't do anything until the screen is deactivated i.e. I supply
the password so that I can use my system.  This is running with the latest
version of R:Base for Windows under Windows 2000.  I thought maybe the
e-mail client (Outlook 98 on my system) was required to be running when
R:Mail is launched.

Has anyone experienced this situation?  If so, is there a workaround or
configuration setting that I can adjust?  I currently have a program that
runs at 5:30 AM that uses R:Mail when I get into my office at 7:30 R:Mail is
attempting to connect to the e-mail client.  As soon as I turn the screen
saver off R:Mail completes its job -- and not until.  It works great as long
as there is no screen saver on.

Any thoughts?

Thanks
