      Hi Bill -- on Oct 29 2015 at 22:37, you wrote:              BG> I'm sorry. "FLAGS DIR"?? That's one I've not seen yet.              In the setup for Irex you're asked to enter a directory where flag files are       placed. I call mine c:\flags, oddly enough!! Irex puts a file in there to       indicate that it's alive (ruxup.0 -- the extension changes according for each       copy that's running) and it looks there for files directing it to exit,       process mail, etc.              Cheers...
