Re-triggering the server events makes triggers a loop for your found set of
customers, and basically will trigger the event the same as if you triggered
it from the Scripts menu. If your telnet event windows are alow or not
closing, check the "Wait For" side for your events. It's very important you
are taking into account any invisible characters (such as ANSI codes) if
your telnet daemon is sending them. (As far as I know, they all do except
PragmaSys's telnet daemon when you run it in stream mode).
