Hi Dieter - With regard to the email function. Is there a delay set in sending emails within the program? The reason I ask is that emails sent via 162 seem to be taking up to 1 hour to arrive at the destination. If I send an email to the same destinations from outside the program they get there within a few seconds. Perhaps this is a problem that has previously been addressed.

Thanks for sorting out the currency problem . . . .

No - there is nothing like that.
It seems as if the mail queue (that's a part of your server software) is worked off only in hour time

Hi Deiter - Yes I think you are right about that - I'll see if I can change the mail queue.

With regard to the currency - If I set the country to "Others and set the currency to &#163 I get the £ symbol OK. But then the period is a comma (eg £2,00) not a full stop (£2.00) - also when the auction is over I get this sort of message:

Auction number: 1161889699
Title: test item
is now closed.

The high bid was: &#163 2,00

If I set the country to US and the currency to GBP it works OK

Thanks for all your help . . . Bridget

Hi Dieter - Thanks for that - the currency seems to work fine now. I have another problem which I will open a new thread for . . . ..
