Yes, the same question here! :-)
If I'm right, "1" means stopped and "3" means running.
Are there other possibilities?

I would like to add the question, if the status numbers will be the same also in coming releases of hmailserver or could it be that they change?

Added to the documentation.
http://www.hmailserver.com/documentatio ... pplication

Status numbers will remain the same unless functionality changes or is removed. The API is generally backwards compatible.

Just to comment to Martin that probably:

hStateStopping = 4, Server is running.

probably was meant to be:

hStateStopping = 4, Server is stopping. ;)

Hi Iprat,
sure you are right and it is probably a typing/copy-error,
but nevertheless, if we are absolutely exact:
While the server is stopping he is still running, becaue if he
wouldn't run, why you would need to stop it? :lol:
