posted June 28, 2004 5:02 AM Hi, I have a client using PowerTCP Mail that iterates through messages on a POP server. I have a button that interupts this process. That button calls the following code: pop1.Connection.Close(); Sometimes when I click this I get an exception and thereafter cannot log into the POP account for an hour or two, it has become locked. What is causing this locking? Is my code bad? DO I need to call something else? Thanks |

posted June 29, 2004 12:43 AM Sorry about the wrong forum. I keep asking the developer to give the execption, but I think he's still locked out. I'll post it when I get it. The mail server is on a Solaris machine that's having the problem. I know it doesn't happen on an exchange mail server. It also happened with the sample POP application. I'm not sure if the exception is the same, but when I try to "abort" in the middle of the app getting mail, it happens. I know it's not much to go on, but if you have any ideas let me know |

posted June 29, 2004 8:52 AM If you abort during retrieval, you are killing the connection. On some servers this will cause the mailbox to be locked. This is usually 5-10 minutes though, not hours. |
