Subject: Setting Hiarcs 9 at an 11-ply search depth for an email game

Hi,
This is about Hiarcs 9.  I am using Hiarcs 9 to play email chess with my friend
in Germany, who is sending his moves using Ruffian 1.01.  This is by definition,
"machine vs machine."  Here is my minor difficulty:  We have agreed to set the
match at 11 ply search depth.  However, I find that every time I start up Hiarcs
for the email reply each day, I must re-set the game level at 11 plies, instead
of the default 10 second time control.  I re-installed Hiarcs, and I still get
the same result - I must re-set the depth to 11 plies search every time I
restart Hiarcs to return my daily email moves.

Is this a bug?  Or a design choice?

Thank you for any help.
