 =====Status Updates=====
+Immediately that you are logged into the Status Server, VPOP3 will send status updates to you. Initially it will send a big burst of data to get you up-to-date, then it will send updates as and when they occur. The data is 'pushed' to you, you do not need to request an update.
+Each data line begins with a single character indicating the type of update, then the rest of the data is the update data, then finally it ends with a CR/LF pair.
+Note that you will only receive a type of update if the permissions for the logged in user allow that user to have those updates.
+===0 - Status line===
+An update line beginning with '0' (ASCII code 48) indicates a status line update, shown in the Status Monitor activity log
+The structure of the line is:
+<time><text>
+  * <time> is 16 hex characters indicating the time the status line was created in a HEX format of a Microsoft FILETIME structure
+  * <text> is the status line text
+===1 - Connection Status===
+An update line beginning with '1' (ASCII code 48) indicates a connection status update. This is the text which usually appears in the 'Connection' box of the Status Monitor
+The structure of the line is:
+<text>
+  * <text> is the connection status text
