   |Correct, that is exactly what is going on.  Even though I might be able to   
   |force binary telnet mode on my BBS, the telnet session that Mystic kicks off   
   to   
   |the BBS would also need to be set to binary mode.

   |Unfortunately, there is no control for that at the present time.

   So this issue only affects telnet connections where you telnet to one   
   system and then can telnet to the next, like with the mystic matrix menu or   
   the SBBS "door" that lets you telnet to another system?   
       
   I am pretty sure that I had zmodem working fine with telnet connections to   
   my GT Power system back when folks telneted into the OS/2-VMODEM box   
   directly (well, with at least my router and ISP in between).  Now that I am   
   not set up that way -- I have mystic set up on port 23, routing traffic to   
   GT or SBBS -- they do not work.
