Francesco, could you please use plain-text when sending mails to the
list? HTML mail means much more work for me. Thanks.

Hmm - maybe you did, and something else converts it. Must be your setup.

I'm not surprised. It's been ages since I last tested it - I've never
used it myself - and I am pretty sure I've broken it with some of the
changes that have gone into Hobbit over the past year.

Unless there's a huge outcry of "I really need it!", I don't think I 
can be bothered to fix it; I'll just remove it instead. And if you
do need it, I will probably implement it as a plain network test
associated with a normal host (like the "http" tests where you can have
multiple HTTP requests) instead of making these IP-pool-checks something
special.

In a later release, of course.

Henrik
