The last email was sent instead of saved as draft. The last line should have been: log << severity::warn() << "Packet was larger than the buffer that contains it!" << auditing::full() << set("User", user) << set("connection",connection) << " Packet source= " << connection << ", account = " << user << "\n" << dump_hex(packet); I'll finish it up after lunch. --- Jason Wagner jason@nialscorva.net
