Yes, that would fudge things up a bit!  <g>

I'm the one that a few releases ago asked for the ability to set the PAN cache 
higher than 1 gig.  I have mine set at 4 gig now.  Back with a 1 gig cache, I 
always had problems keeping stuff in the cache long enough to assemble it, 
until I figured out to direct save rather than download, and then go thru and 
save, as I'd been doing b4, and do with single part attachments.  I still do 
that with multiparts some now, but no longer have the problem, as the cache 
size is large enough to handle it.  (I have it set on a 8 gig dedicated 
partition, so I can expand that 4 gig if I ever need to, but haven't needed 
to, so...)
