I don't think the problem is "solved" but it seems to have disappeared. I was fixing what should have been an unrelated problem (added a value for .cSenderName in WWIPStuff) and when I recompiled the problem disappeared.

I can't imagine what one would have had to do with the other but I won't look a gift solution in the mouth (at least this time).

Thanks for your efforts.......You too Pascal

>>>may send multiple e-mails.
>>>
>>That is the intention. If the users enter multiple addresses with a semi-colon as delimiter the program does not send properly. I probably should have replaced the semi-colon with a comma, but sending a separate email to each recipient was the first thing I thought of and it worked so I never looked at a better way of doing it.

>>Yes I do and No I don't. We actually want the timer to fire again even if this code is still running. I can tell you that the second email is definitely not coming from a second timer.
