When the file transfer is complete, you have to hit a key (it should say "Hit a
key to continue" in the file transfer log box). If it's not displaying anything
in the main box of the file transfer window, then you probably have the
log_level set to 0 (which is a common bug in SyncTerm).

And what was displayed on the BBS/server side at this time? It sounds like the
BBS side aborted the transfer.
