It has inspired me to take another look at       the 'regular' version of JamNNTPd. I also have uncovered a memory leak in       using somewhere between SMAPI and JamNNTPd.              I was running my test scripts against the new Win32 build - and after some       time, SMAPI starts to go nuts about being unable to close some random       pointer... I've just pulled the win32 zip off the website until I can track       down the issue.              Look for a new version, perhaps tomorrow.               BF> And whaddaya know? It compiled! But then I once again have all the        BF> warnings. I don't think I will go for the SMAPI version -- the resulting        BF> EXE file is twice as big as the Stenberg version.              I should point out that for the size, it does gain some options for message       bases. That version will support JAM, .MSG, and Squish all at the same time.       (just prefix the group filename with a '$' for Squid, a '#' for .MSG, and       optionally, a '!' for Jam, which is the default anyway)              ---        * Origin: -=[ SSAlpha da'Point/win32 ]=- (1:266/420.1)    |
