This will result in the OutgoingRunners hanging, especially if the SMTPHOST still accepts connections. This is a patch that wraps the SMTP transcaction in an alarm() to prevent OutgoingRunners from hanging indefinitely. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=300103&aid=1111899&group_id=103
