Re: DotNetNuke 05.06.02 Released
Sounds great! Curious if the "race condition in the core scheduler" could have been what was causing ActiveForums MailConnector to slam my mail server with over 5 million POP3 connections per day (until I fixed it by using a different method to call the MailConnector routine).

@David - I spoke to Will Morgenweck and he says that he believes this is the root cause of the issue. He should have a response soon on the ActiveModules forums regarding this issue.

@David
While it's not impossible for the races in the core scheduler to cause tasks to run too often, it is much more likely that the scheduler would crash and fail to run tasks. Also the nature of the races makes in intermittent and unpredictable problems much more likely than consistent and persistent problems.
