      Nick...              NB>If you care to have successful connections from unlisted nodes, maybe lookin       NB>at another mailer would be an option for you?               I am considering Argus. Marc Lewis came into the system remotely, and       noted I may have a CORRUPT EXE with IREX for Windows. You could NEVER       get the system to save the entry "accept connects from unlisted       systems". While you could do it in the same session...when you exited       REXCFGW, and reloaded it, the paramenter was back to "NO".              NB>Binkd is a great mailer, otherwise I hear FMail for Windows is pretty good t       NB>and has more of a GUI configuration than binkd does, I believe.               One of my connects for QWK Networking gets the stuff transferred via       FTP through IREX...the rest of them are via BinkP. If I could get it to       where folks could connect to me, instead of my manually polling 4 times       a day, that'd be great. I don't think Comcast is blocking the comport.              NB>Which, IMO, is bullshit. You shouldn't make people pay for a product you're        NB>going to support. Continued support is part of the reason you pay for a       NB>product. If you're not going to support it anymore, open source it, or sell        NB>to someone who will continue to support it. That's just how I feel about it,       NB>anyways.               Agreed. I was lucky enough to be able to register it, but I think it       was through one of the U.S. registration sites.              Daryl              ---        þ OLX 1.53 þ Got my tie caught in the fax...
