Meeting Maker Errors

If you've been running the X Meeting Maker client for a while (several days), it may get hung. Thu GUI will still be responsive, but you won't get a new notifications. This is very bad - you won't know that a meetings have been rescheduled. You won't know you have the problem, either. To fix it, restart MM every day. What a piece of crap.

Every few months, it's a good idea to stop Meeting Maker, delete the ~/mmclient directory, and restart Meeting Maker. This clears it's cache. Ed Arnold has found this to help. After you do this, you'll have to reset the Preferences as described above.
