This is an old subject, but since I haven't seen anything about it in awhile, I figured I'd give it another go.
Using The Bat 1.61 (I haven't seen a New Features/Fixes list that dictates I should go any higher at this time) on Windows XP. I do not recall this ever happening with 1.5x. Sometimes... Out of nowhere ... The Bat just stops picking up mail. Something INTERNAL hangs. NO visible issues - just a strange absence of mail. Shut down THE BAT, and you get the message similar to "There are still operations in progress. Want to exit when they are finished?" Neither response allows you exit. Killing THE BAT task is the only way out. I'm not alone. Another user is having the same issues as I am. I don't run any consumerware stuff resident (no firewalls, AV software, no other non-well-behaving TSRs). I run Directory Opus and Trillian resident. My other friend isn't running anything different. I was running 1.5x under the same conditions without the issue. Anyone else have a voice on this? Similar experiences? Possible solutions? I cannot recreate it ... and it doesn't happen very often. Maybe once a month; twice at the most. Thanks a bunch! -- Shane R.
