   Hello Shawn,

   I have your workaround here for mTel. I think's the same issue with a buggy   
   ZModem implementation.  I switched over to YModem-G without issue.  It's not   
   that big of a deal but I want to let my callers know that there may be issues.   
      
   I've discovered when downloading a QWK packet using HyperTerminal with ZModem,   
   HT's buggy Zmodem causes a data corruption and you lose the whole packet.

   I understand that only too well...
