        It did ? can you substantiate that ? I read your post in the morning,
and Tor (after doing some real research & work on it) replied only three
hours later.

        Anyhow - if there is a lag, the solution to mail delivery problems is
not (IMHO) forcing everyone to use yet-another awful web forum thing :-)

        Great :-)

        Heh :-) it is a good bug to find - and we should fix it. In fact - it
would be wonderful if you could have a dig into the setup_native/ code,
and/or the solenv/bin/make_installer.pl MSI creation to see if we can
find what exactly does this. Quite possibly it is something 'obvious'
that just a bit of reading and thought - even with little to no
progamming skill can wind out of the code.

        Anyhow, I suspect we were just paniced a bit by the serious-ness of
this bug, and relieved to find it is not a regression vs. OO.o :-)

        Thanks,

                Michael.
