Hello ML!

I am trying to have TB 1.38XE to check automatically for mail at
regular intervals, and want it to hang up the modem line after each
attempt.
In the accounts I want checked through the dial-up line, in
Properties/Network I have checked 'Use account-specific setting',
'Dialup Networking Connection', 'Automatic Disconnect', 'No Auto Dial'
and 'Use an existing dial-up connection'. I am launching the mail
check through a batch file with the following command:
"path_to_thebat" /NOLOGO /CHECK"account_name" /EXIT

It works fine at home on Win98SE: TB launch, ISP dialling, mail check,
hang-up.
At the office, on WinNT4 SP5 workstation I have a problem: the line is
automatically hang-up only if some new mail is found. In case there is
no new mail the line stays on forever. What am I doing wrong? Is there
a way to force a dialup line hangup on NT4 that I could launch through
a scheduler like Winat? (the 'hangup if line idle' setting in Control
Panel/Modems/Properties does not seem to function either).

Thanks,
Karim
