Cool. I've been planning to make another demo video and then call that version 1.0 and release it officially, but haven't prioritized that yet. If everything goes smoothly with the video/demo, then v0.2 and v1.0 would likely be functionaly identical.

Okay, the reason I asked was to help determine if it was state in SVDM or the mailer itself that might need to be "reset" to get things working again. Are you able to restart the mailer without exiting your batch file loop (and thus restart SVDM) - as a test?
