   No.  I use OpenXP (my point prog) for echos that I feel that I would want to   
   participate more often.     
      
   I use the nntp-method from (2:221/1) just to check out content and lurk for a   
   while. (I wouldn't mind using nntp from trmb, but the login simply stopped   
   working)    
      
   I use the webified interface (trmb.ca/bbbs) when am not not at my usual pc and   
   if I just want to check on the status of messages in familiar echos. The   
   latter seems to have issues, so I try to avoid it.   
      
   I played with QWK for a while. But the doing the telnet connection to the bbs,   
   navigating through the menus and triggering a download and the reverse process   
   to upload started to get tedious for me.     
      
   I still keep Sempoint in my back pocket though:
