I thought I gave the symptoms here above: After a couple of hours (like 2 or 3), when I had composed an email and was sending it (I had pressed C-c C-c), Emacs wrote "Sending email..." (or similar) in the echo area. Normally, that message disappears after a couple of seconds, and I'm back to the Group buffer. Here, that message did not disappear. After 1 minute or so, I thought that Emacs was hanging. I checked my Internet connection, that was OK. But seconds later, Emacs still prompted me: Memory exhausted--use C-x s then exit and restart Emacs in the echo area, and Emergency (alloc): Warning: past 95% of memory limit in a popup buffer. I went back to the draft of the email, and tried again, but the message never got sent. So, I restarted Emacs as stated. These are the symptoms that I observed. Do you expect anything else? Clearly, I should have looked at the memory footprint of Emacs, but (for reasons which escape me now), I unfortunately did not. But I thought that the messages only would help you localizing the cause of the problem. Best regards, Seb -- Sebastien Vauban
