Hi Pieter

Thanks for the swift answer. I was silent because I tried to condense something 
meaningful, but it is not as easy.

The minimal version (based on test_req_relaxed.cpp) works fine. Only in the 
application the send command does not work. The application is a bit more 
complex:

I have two distinct parts of the software 
- a database connection done with 0MQ and its own zmq_ctx and 
- a central machine interface (CMI) which talks to - well - machines. This CMI 
creates a _second_ zmq_ctx, simply because it is not trivial to hand the same 
context to both parts.

-> Could that matter?

The CMI object passes that second ctx to a few machine interfaces (also c++ 
objects) which have a sending and a receiving thread. Each thread takes the ctx 
and opens a socket.

The sending socket/thread fails 90% the times I start the application and sits 
in zmq::mailbox_t::recv (also see my mail to Christian), the other 10% it works 
fine. I don't remember having done something different in these cases. It also 
works 100% if I set ZMQ_REQ_RELAXED to OFF.

One thing I also noticed: It seems to work if each machine interface object 
creates its own zmq_ctx. But that's so opposed to what you write....

Best regards
Björn

Hi Björn,

The best thing when it comes to specific functionalities like this is a minimal 
test case that shows the problem.
