Hello Maurice!

I'm using dove.synchro.net (which resolves to 2 different IPs/machines, so you will probably hit different machines at different times). You might want to check if that makes any difference.

That's really strange!

I know that one of the machines (can't remember which one) is faster at checking for new mail / creating the packages, but that's the only difference I know of...

Best regards
