Hi,

I have a VB.Net 2003 program that uses Indy to check if there are any
messages waiting on a POP mail server.

The program has been running fine for a few months, but last week
after Installing a network packet reading program called WireShark my
VB.Net program no longer runs and generates the following error :

An unhandled exception of type 'System.Net.Sockets.SocketException'
occurred in system.dll

Additional information: An operation on a socket could not be
performed because the system lacked sufficient buffer space or because
a queue was full

The line that generates this error is :

Dim POPSver As New Indy.Sockets.POP3


Since the program was working fine before I know that there is no
problem with my actual code.

I guess there must be some settings that WireShark may have changed,
can you suggest what I need to look at to see why I'm getting this
error message.

I've re-installed Indy but still get the error message


Regards

Steve.

Steve!

What is the buffer you declared?

Need to know that because if you have a string builder of 256 chars & the
message exceeds that then you will get an insufficient buffer error, but
without seeing any code its not very easy to say where it is.

Provide more info if you want to get help

            POPSver.IOHandler.WriteLn("Quit")
            POPSver.Disconnect()

        Finally

        End Try

        Message_String = "At : "
        Message_String = Message_String & Now() & "  : "
        Message_String = Message_String & Messages_On_Server
        Message_String = Message_String & "   Messages On Server."
        MessageBox.Show(Message_String)
