Well, there goes my SP3 theory. Like you, my home system has been
running fine for years. It's only on a client system I've been seeing
the freezing. Backtracking to version 1.53t seems to have gotten
things stabilized for them again.

Is there some reason you're using the "Workstation with TCP/IP" mode
instead of the "*without* TCP/IP" mode? I finally settled on this both
for my own system and for my clients in the interests of centralizing
the network activities. I was finding some spurious problems with
emails sent twice or received twice otherwise. Nothing I could track
down to the mode setting, but I wanted to remove one more variable.

Also, do you have email centralized on the server or are there
individual email storage areas on the workstation machines?
