The status
indicator is a visual cue of the current success or failure of
RemoteBot. There are six traffic light states:
The green light
indicates that there are currently no errors.
The green light
with a blue background indicates that there are currently no errors
and a requested task has been responded to, e.g., a file from another
computer has successfully downloaded. When this icon appears,
look for a smaller similar icon in the task list.
The red light indicates that a problem has occurred. Most often
the red light will appear when RemoteBot cannot connect to the mail
server or when your computer is not connected to the internet.
Check the status message for a complete description.
The red light
with a yellow background indicates that an error has occurred with one
or more tasks. Check the task list for tasks with a similar
icon, then check the properties of that task for detail on why the
task had an error.
The yellow light
indicates that RemoteBot is busy communicating with the mail server.
The exclamation point indicates that RemoteBot is
busy performing actions requested by tasks. This may include
processing a request from another computer, gathering directory
information or decompressing a file.
