   Hi Alan,

    WV>> What's the problem? You can always configure the case sensitive   
    WV>> tosser with an all uppercase (or lowercase) password to communicate   
    WV>> with a case insensitive tosser.   
      
    AI> It's not a problem, a PITA maybe.   
      
   Why a PITA? You have to configure it once. Check that it works and be done

    WV>> And that's what I'm trying to find out, if there could be a problem   
    WV>> if I change FMails behaviour. I'm not seeing it, but I can't think of   
    WV>> everything. ;)

   Indeed.   
      
    AI> From what I have read today Internet Rex is case sensitive for packet

   Indeed.   
      
   Bye, Wilfred.
