There is patch for that in the archives. We are waiting to Jan> for the maintainer to release a version with the fix (:-p). Yes, I remember seeing your patches to fix this. However, that isn't the case right now, where there are 6 itimers: "auto-save", "vm-flush", "vm-check-mail", "url-history-saver", and two lazy shot timers for the wide reply I'm sending now and the one I sent to Kyle just a second ago. I'll watch more carefully when this happens again. Thanks, Ray
