   hummm... you might want to try adding an external protocol driver or three and   
   seeing how they work out... i think i have two or three alternative zmodem   
   drivers that are available here... DSZ, Texas Zmodem, and another i can't   
   think of right off hand...   
      
    KT> I'm running Netfoss 1.11, I haven't tried any other version yet.

    KT> file finishes up.    
      
   you shouldn't have to be loading and unloading a fossil driver... load it at   
   the beginning and leave it until the bbs shuts down... oh but wait... you may   
   be doing it that way because of your mailer if you are running a mailer in   
   front of RA...   
      
    KT> "NetFoss v1.11 (c) 2001-2013 pcmicro.com

   netfoss 1.12 is out since 3 Aug 2014... it might be of benefit to try it...
