The problem was first noticed after I installed the latest security patch for Internet Explorer or installed for a short time an updated version of AVP anti virus (for evaluation) or installed Trillian version 0.70. I don't really know if any, all or none of these events had anything to do with the problem. Anyway, I had the same email problem using Pegasus Mail, plus the fact that I couldn't login to Yahoo email pages using any browser. I therefore decided to reinstall Windows. I also added a parameter to Pegasus Mail on startup to use "blocking sockets", which the program says may be needed for some defective Winsock implementations. The problem with Pegasus now seems to be gone and also I can now login to my Yahoo mailbox with a browser. I realise that all the above probably adds to the confusion, but it is indeed a confusing situation for me. In summary, I still don't understand why some emails stop short of being sent with The Bat, 5 bytes before the full message size, whereas they do get sent with Pegasus Mail - after I added the parameter which is supposed to take care of the "blocking sockets" matter. -- Best regards, Costas mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- ________________________________________________________ Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Latest Vers: 1.53d FAQ : http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com
