and that added up to 4 GIGS! (4 GIGS!!!!!!!) of emails!!!

I KNEW I should have shut relaying down.. they basically used ironworksforum.com as their send out (SMTP) email server.

I caught it before 99% of the emails were sent thank the gods [img]smile.gif[/img] ...
Yikes! How long has this been going on then? I've been having these time-out errors for months now...
First time I had this error as far as I can remember was on December the 20th, when I tried to send a PM to the Hierophant, to be more exact.
