That makes sense. Under BB a code of 99 tells the server to ACK for all recipients. I tried doing a 99 to make sure the tons of people on the list to be notified did not get a repeat message.

I am trying to ACK alerts using 4.1.2p1 but nothing happens, and I get the following in the hobbitd.log

2006-03-06 11:06:10 Cookie 9679999 not found, dropping ack 2006-03-06 11:08:59 Cookie 96799 not found, dropping ack

I can see on previous mailings that version 4.0.2 had ack problems. I assumed it was fixed by 4.1.2. My question is, I must have misconfigured something, and was wondering what I should be looking at to fix this?

The obvious thing to check is of course the ack code. If you run bb 127.0.0.1 "hobbitdboard host=MYHOST fields=testname,cookie" it will give you a list of the tests and their corresponding ack code ("cookie" in Hobbit terms). So - are you using the right one?

I notice your cookies have "99" at the end. I seem to recall that BB did something special with ack-codes that ended with 99; Hobbit doesn't do that.
