   That's the version we have and netmail does not play nice if you have a host   
   that requires PKT passwords and won't hear of turning them off :-(   
      
   The reason being is PXOnline generated the netmail .pkts on the fly when it   
   connected to a node.  Worked well in the 1990's dialup world not so much on   
   the internet world.   
      
   We do have a new tosser in the works from the people who brought us Wildmail.   
   ViaToss will be a lot more friendly with bink-d and even internet REX.  Just   
   not ready for prime time yet.
