Please see the log file <wink>.

Probably the same error that the try got trying to shutdown.

How did you try and start it?  "net start pop3proxy"?  Note I just saw
pop3proxy_tray etc get confused with multiple proxies running.

Not to me <wink>

I've no idea - but presumably we want all programs to use the same logic, so
a "script" doesn't make much sense.  Further, we probably still want some
kind of mutex to prevent multiple apps accidently starting.  It may make
sense to have log redirection logic there too.  Someone will have to "just
do it" :)
