If I run multiple instances of MLK, can I also automatically close an instance after it's finished doing it's work.

eg. If I start 3 instances (and 3 separate lists) from a batch file, I don't want them to be just hanging there taking up resources once it's done it's work.

I want them to launch each with their own mailing list, do its subscribe/unsubscribe run, then close itself down afterwards. I can use scheduler to launch them a few times a day, but how would I close them automatically also?

Hi Paul

Why not just leave them running and use the automatic processing options in MLK to make it process messages every x hours?

An idling instance of MLK would not use very much resources.

Hi

I could do with a few instances, but if I had to have several I would prefer a method of closing them down when not in use.

I only want them to come online a couple of times a day, the rest of the time the PC will have other uses.

Hi Paul

We'll look at adding a command line parameter for this to the next update.

FYI the "/AUTOCLOSE" parameter has been added to 8.06. It will be released next week.
