Hi all,

I developped a window service that used to work without any problem
for months in Windows 2000 Server.
When I run it on Windows 2003 Server, after some time (maybe random)
it stops working.

In details, this service is working with TMail2000 component to read
mails from an account, connects to Microsoft SQL Server, post some
records and move some files in a shared folder, notify some user that
somethig had happened and that they should go checking for it in a web
page.
As I said, everything worked well for more than an year (and a cupple
of different mail servers). Now I installed in on our new Windows 2003
Server and sometimes it stops working.

Made some debug testing and got that it always stops inside TMail2000
component, while waiting for the mail message list from the server...
Or better: it works fine for an undefined number of times that at the
nth it hangs and block the excution of the service.

Tried to change the mail server: still hangs. So the problem should be
the OS because in Windows 2000 Server I had no such problem.

Any idea about what it could ever be?

Thanks.
