   I am not sure what JoHo has in his plans for FD.  I like FD abd run it on one   
   of my addresses.  There are some limitatiions to all this though.  FD only   
   comes in DOS or OS2.  If Sexpots came in an OS2 flovor I'd have people call   
   the mailer and transfer out to the BBS... As it stands now it doesn't do that.   
      
   I'm not a programmer, or do I play one on TV, but the solutions seems simple   
   enough.  FD needs to come in other flavors, windows or linux, and all it   
   needs to do is handle fileboxes for some of it's outgoing mail.  If it's a   
   modem, or vmodem, call it makes it.  If its a binkp call then binkd makes it.   
      
   fmail can toss mail real nice as file attach or filesboxes.  It wouldn't take   
   much effort to make things work, on the mail side anyway.   
      
   If what I read is correct.... the challange is to get the vmodem side to   
   work...  not sure where I read that.   
      
   Fingers crossed... excied to see what comes of it.
