But I'm more likely to put a in 100 email-at-a-time cap than I am to worry about what happens with you try to give it thousands. This feature is intended for getting new updates, not data mining.

When I get back home (maybe this weekend) I'll see if I can work on identifying it. I didn't tell you because I needed it fixed, I only mentioned it because I thought you should know. It might be a problem with the number that's being downloaded, and it might be something else. *shrug* I don't know until I try it.
I'll probably do something like 50 at a time and see if it misses any when it does that. Then move up to 100, just to experiment. Maybe run the same set a couple times, to see if it gets any different results. I know it wasn't intended for data-mining, but it was useful instead of spending several hours copying them by hand. I have almost all the stories anyway, I was looking for ones I hadn't downloaded in the past, or identify ones that I had read and had disappeared from ff.net (over 150 from my lists) to see if I could figure out if I could find said story elsewhere.
It really irritates me to lose something I read and may want to read again.... I am still trying to find some old fanfics by Master Eldryn that I had started right at the time he deleted them. I *really* wish I had deffnet'd them (I'm pretty sure it was available then) or copied them into a word file as I'd done a lot of fanfics pre deffnet. I had one or two that I found later when they made their way around the internet, but never the ones I wanted.
Ah well, someday. Anyway, thanks, I'll try and remember to do those checks later.
