   Found a bug I think   
   06 Apr 21 13:48:42   
   
   TID: Mystic BBS 1.12 A46   
   MSGID: 1:229/700 04a5bce9   
   TZUTC: -0400   
   Fidopoll seems to abort when polling multiple hubs and receives mail on the   
   1st or 2nd one.   
      
   What I am seeing:   
   Run Fidopoll and poll all hubs   
   Connects to 1st (Primary) and downloads mail (I think it creates the   
   semaphore here that there is mail to import)   
   Closes connection to 1st and then polls 2nd. Mail or no mail received   
   Closes 2nd and polls 3rd. Receiving mail. In the server screen I see that   
   Toss Incoming Mail event has started. Seems to be waiting but may not be as I   
   have some other things run from a batch file before mutil actually imports.   
   Closes 3rd, Toss event keeps running and all the rest of the Polls are   
   skipped.   
      
   The rest of the polls have to wait for the next Poll event to run. And if any   
   mail is received by any of the hubs, the remaining Polls are skipped. Worst   
   case scenario, the last 1 or 2 or 3 polls never complete as mail is received   
   on the 1st 2 or 3 polls and Fidopoll aborts.   
      
   I know I could setup individual events for each network but I would rather   
   get all mail from all hubs at 1 time.    
      
   Even if it was just 2 hubs and the primary is very high volume the Toss   
   Incoming event would start before it finished the 1st poll and abort the 2nd.   
      
   Anyway, just wanted to bring it up.
