So it sounds like the connection to the server times out. That has never happened to me (and I often have the mail dispatcher open for 10+ minutes) so it may be a serverside problem. I am not aware of a setting in TB to keep the connection alive (something like NOOP in FTP or IMAP, I don't know if it exists for POP3)... I remember MS Outlook/Express do have a "server timeout" slider, but I wonder how it would affect the server itself. :-) However, you may want to try one of the automatic spam filters that many people on this list are using - SpamPal, PopFile or K9. -- Best regards, Alexander (http://www.neurowerx.de) The trouble with my wife is that she is a whore in the kitchen and a cook in the bed. -- Geoffrey Gorer ________________________________________________ Current version is 2.00 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
