At times when I try to connect to my feed and it fails, I try again and
the BinkD screen just "flashes" and no retry is made. I usually have
to either reboot or come back in a day or so and BinkD works.

Any one have any clues as to why this happens. I am running on a
Windows XP system because that is the only thing my mail program work
on.

Thanks

I believe 2.13.2.2 if I read the .cfg file correctly. Guess I should
also mention that it is running on a Widows XP drive on a Windows 7
computer because I am using Terminate and it never was written for anythting later than XP.


I also check mail once a momth or so. Alwauys been more of a luker.

Been around FIDO since the glory days of the HST Phone 34 then 56 K modems.
