   Not sure if this message got out last night as I was having a lot of issues   
   with messages not going out.. But here goes..   
      
   I could have sworn I read somewhere that with A48 some were having issues   
   with poll.bsy not being deleted. Is anyone having this issue?? I am noticing   
   that sometimes it is not being deleted in the Linux version. I noticed it   
   yesterday, my network traffic wasn't leaving my board, when I deleted the   
   poll.bsy it was fine, then tonight I noticed it again was sitting in the   
   semaphore directory and nothing was transferred to my CNet Amiga or Synchro   
   board most of the day..   
      
   And now tonight I get home and there is a poll.bsy sitting in the directory and   
   no transfers to any of my other boards.. I can set up a cron even to delete the   
   poll.bsy every hour but what happens if the BBS is in the middle of a poll when   
   it gets deleted..   
      
   Anyone else having this issue??
