I use Adept adf111y.zip I do not use Orion, since in spite of the more recent date, it never got past the alpha/beta test stage, AFAIK. Too many reports of major problems with it. If possible you should attempt to AreaFix the ADEPT_SYSOP echo, where you will find more help.

In that case it closes the land line modem port so that modem becomes free for use by InJoy. It also forces that event to run and waits for it to finish before going to the next event. SP> establish TCP/IP and exchange news/e-mail messages Although I avoid NewsGroups I do think that will work. As for E-Mail AFAIK that would require a static IP address and a registered domain name (although DynIP might work). I sold my domain name before I got around to trying E-Mail directly into Adept. I use Mr/2Ice for E-Mail and I could use that for NewsGroups as well. But of course that does not post those msgs into the Adept msg-base. SP> automaticly, couple of times per d .
