Projects Don't Stop
I don't know if this is a bug or not but when I hit stop on the Scheduler, Or on SER itself They don't stop at all. I've sat and waited around 10-15 mins and it just continues going. The only way I can get it to stop is to Task Manager Than stop the program than when it reloads all the priorities are all messed up.

if on slower www connections that state may easily go up to 30+ minutes
with no CPU usage nor threads active
but
by the very end you get an output on your log
and you see usually it is always something with email downloading/parsing
specially if you have several projects/Tiers using a few common mail boxes
one method I found to work is to do all the email stuff BEFORE starting SER
then the mail boxes are mostly empty and only refilled with currently ongoing activities and by the end of your run = hitting STOP = then may result in all projects being inactive and cleared within FEW minutes only
MAY BE the announcement of "downloading email" or "parsing email" is made at the very beginning = may be hundreds or thousands of log lines before
after STOP and a waiting period, all you see is the final result
may be there is a way to tell users AFTER stop what activities are still pending ?
@sven - I believe there is some problem when stopping projects using the scheduler, normal stop/start seems to work fine.
I have had phantom projects running on some occasions
The five second count down button don't stop them either
Usually have to wait literally hours or close it with task manager which results in lost data.
Please check it out Sven.
