Thanks The timeouts currently do not cause a callback to occur. They are cought by the HTHost object (HostEvent() in HTHost.c) but are not probably dealt with. It would be very useful to add this - if you can find time to start then I will have a look next week when I return from IETF. Anybody else have solved this?
