In the badmail area?              It is probably very specific. I checked source code for Crashmail (ok, version       1.6 here, file src/jamlib/jamlib.doc - but OK):              -------        if ( Result_I == JAM_LOCK_FAILED )        /* base locked by someone else, wait for unlock */        sleep( 1 );       -------       So Crashmail should wait until GoldEd unlock it...              Karel       --- GoldED+/LNX 1.1.5-b20180707        * Origin: Plast DATA (2:423/39)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 18/200 30/0 90/1 105/81 120/340 123/131 129/305 203/0       SEEN-BY: 221/1 6 360 226/30 227/114 229/101 424 426 452 664 700 1016       SEEN-BY: 229/1017 240/1120 5832 249/206 317 400 280/464 5003 282/1038       SEEN-BY: 292/854 301/0 1 101 103 113 123 812 317/3 322/757 342/200       SEEN-BY: 420/33 333 421/79 83 423/39 81 120 121 633/280 5058/104       PATH: 423/39 81 221/1 301/1 229/426           |
