After sending the RETR request for *some* messages, emacs would hang hard. After much tracing and killing of emacses, monitoring network traffic, etc, it looks like the accept-process-output in pop3-retr was hanging. Can more stuff come from the POP server without accept-process-output being called? If so, it looks like there may be a race condition, where the ".\r\n" is delivered after the re-search-forward, but before the accept-process-output. This quick hack got things working: (accept-process-output process 1) I *am* using emacs on an NT box (no flames, please). Perhaps that is the problem. -- Joe Hildebrand Senior Technical Architect Research and Development Interlink Group, Inc.
