Hmmm...

- Don't use modem flags for IP only or Pvt nodes. So the V34 flag can go for
all of them.
- ICM should be CM. ICM is only needed for combined POTS and IP nodes where the
 phone line isn't 24/7 available, but the IP line is.
- The baudrate should always be 300 in combination with -Unpublished-.
- Pvt nodes with the functionality of a point shouldn't be in the nodelist,
they should use a point number.
  (We can't connect to their fidosystem (nor bbs), for delivering crashmail, so
 they are not real nodes.)
- There is a space instead of an underscore in Fernando Miculan's name. Didn't
makenl complain about that?

I prefer to receive segment updates in the filearea AMYSEG (you first need to
add it, by talking to my filefix).

You are connected here as 39:943/0 to 39:90/0, so those are the addresses you
need to use.

Bye, Wilfred.
