Unfortunately Maximus' internal QWK does not (yet?) support offline config.  
The more annoying thing is that it _pretends_ to -- it tells readers that
it has ADD/DROP support in the DOOR.ID, but it doesn't actually do anything
with the control messages if you send them. I've fixed that in the CVS
version (i.e., it still doesn't support ADD/DROP, but now it doesn't
pretend to, either).

The Blue Wave door for Maximus supports offline config. It's also better
than the internal QWK in other respects. But it does have some Y2K issues
if not patched/worked around.

.... Never settle with words what you can accomplish with a flame thrower.
