Is there any way to set NNT but still have completed tasks report in automatically ?

If a completed task is "uploaded" but it's not "reported" what happens ?

The "ready to report"-tasks wait until next scheduler-connect, this happens:
1; If asks for more work (not done if set to NNT).
2; If been "ready to report" for 24 hours.
3; If less than 24 hours until deadline.
4; If time until deadline is less than "Computer is connected to the Internet about every N days".
5; Manually triggered by user hitting "update".
6; To send trickle-up message (AFAIK CPDN only).
7; Not generally recommended to use, it's possible to set <report_results_immediately> as an <options> in the cc_config.xml-file.
8; It's possible for a project to tell client to re-connect in N hours, and any finished tasks will also be reported at the same time. Only a couple projects uses this, and SETI@home is not one of them.

It eventually passes deadline and is sent to another host. Upload isn't tied into the database, so there's nothing to trigger validation. When the WU is resolved so file deletion can be done, all the uploads are deleted whether they've been reported or not.

Thanks for the replies gentlemen.

The "report after 24 hrs" option should solve my problem.
