Hi Kenny!

I've finally found the problem. Somehow, EnRoute keeps some information about the pop accounts that you have. In my case, when I was selecting "Use Multi-POP", in internet email settings in InOut, and when I was checking the 2 email accounts there, EnRoute would
say something like "Will check 3 of 2 email accounts", which was obviously wrong. So, after poking around in the system soup, specifically the EnRouteN1:Netstrategy slot in the first entry of the system soup, I've found a slot in there called "multiPOPAccounts".
This slot is actually an array of frames. There were 3 elements in the array, so I thought one was probably bogus. However, it was hard to tell since the elements in the array were basically frames with what looked like internal pointers, apparently to the Names
soup (where your owner cards are stored).

So, from SBM Utilities, I deleted this "multiPOPAccounts" slot from the "EnRouteN1:Netstrategy" slot, and went back to the Multi-POP preferences panel. I clicked "Use Multi-POP", and the 2 email accounts listed. Then, finally, EnRoute was reporting "Will check 2
of 2 email accounts". Did connect, the first time, right after the connection, when EnRoute tried to contact the first POP server, my MP2100 rebooted due to a system error. I've opened InOut again, went to receive email, and then, it worked beautifully! EnRoute
first checked my first email account, then it checked the second one, downloading messages from both account without any problem.

Well, I'm not sure why I'm telling you this, but in case you were having problem, now you know what I did.

-Laurent.
