I was 100% sure that I had tried using flock and had the same problem.  When
ever I ask for help, I try to do all the suggestions, so I set the Lock Type
to flock.  I sent hundreds of emails from gmail to cause the Unlinking
problem.  None showed.

I will let leave this configuration and report back if it was the long-term
solution.

Thanks for your help,
Steve
