   Hi Benny,

    BP> to neil, http://qico.sf.net/ is my client used to connect to you :)   
      
   Cool stuff; a standard Fido mailer over telnet (using TelSer device here,   
   currently) is my preferred way of doing things at the moment.   
      
   In fact, I now get all my mail using this method. I used to tunnel it to my   
   uni email address, but this is inefficient (33% overhead with base64 and   
   uuencode) and can be time consuming to do without a good client side script.   
   Now I have ADSL on the BBS (and unmetered access from my house at uni), I can   
   poll anytime and at no extra cost.. :)   
      
   BinkP I currently only use to call out with; I use Bink4D from Aminet and   
   (since the w*n*er didn't include the GPL source) I have a 4D capable version I   
   built on the original source - I can't remember whether I got this to work   
   properly or what happened or even if I'm using it right now; certainly I   
   didn't release it publically.   
      
   Neither version work particularly well.

   The second caller there is the only recent one which wasn't me - have you   
   configured your Qico correctly or do you have an alias ? :)   
      
   Ah, it's exciting having a 24h multiline BBS :) at last.. I'm going to be   
   spending a lot of time this summer redoing the mess the BBS has got into over   
   the last few years. With only a few occasional callers, and most activity   
   being Fido related, I've left a lot of things to go out of date or be left   
   unfinished..   
      
    BP> i don't have modem atm on my linux box :(   
      
   I plan to phase out modem access to my BBS; keep it on for emergencies,   
   outgoing calls and the like, but phase it out for public use.
