   Offhand... and I could be wrong... AdeptXBBS Gatekeeper, TBBS/Flame, Gecho    
   1.20/Pro... Possibly Viamail. I'm sure there are others. I had a downlink    
   years ago who specifically needed a mixed-case password.   
      
   If two Sysops cannot troubleshoot packet-password problems then thats not a    
   tosser problem. Just remove whatever uppercase-parse code in Fmail, be done.
