Well... it *is* a point program, so.. to me that implies that it *expects* to 
operate as a 5D machine, and communicate with a Boss(es) only.   Every message 
it creates internally will be 5D.

...and therefore, every Uplink and/or System has to be a 4D Boss(?)

However, as I write this, there *is* a Crashmail option at the top of this 
internal editor window.  So, could that imply that it can call/poll *any* other 
open (no session password) system that would accept Crashmail?   If so, then 
maybe it can do what you would think, but for some reason, the config is wrong 
somewhere?
