TNMFTP Problems

I am using the TNMFTP component for a new application and am encountering 
intermittent problems when I call the List() method.  About 80% of the time 
I will get and Exception that says "500 Unknown Command."  And sometimes it 
disconnects after this error and I have to reconnect.  Is it normal to get 
so many failures?  Should I simply be catching these exceptions and retrying 
all the time?

Also, sometimes the List() command doesn't get an exception, but I never get 
the data back from the FTP host.  But if I try to issue the command again, 
it fails saying that a list command is already in progress.  However, it 
never times out even though I have a timeout set to 5000 milliseconds.

I hope someone can help here.  I need to get this product complete fast and 
these kinds of problems just side track everything.
