   As far as I know, you should just add the MO flag. CM is Continuous Mail,   
   which would still be true for your system, wouldn't it?   
      
   MO is Mail Only. So it's basically saying you don't run a BBS there. If you   
   do run a BBS, you probably don't want to use that flag.   
      
   I believe in recent conversations in other echos, other mailers have been   
   moving into the future while Irex has been left behind without updates.   
   Problems are starting to arise in regards to that, but it seems most of those   
   updated mailers have some sort of workaround in place to deal with Irex and   
   other mailers that will never be updated in the future. People that don't   
   connect with you all the time may not know that, though. So if they're trying   
   to connect to you with something like mbcico and don't have the option set to   
   deal with Irex connections, the connection will fail. Just an FYI for future   
   reference, I suppose.
