Hi Todd,

     About "Web access, false BBS ID" of November 3:

TB> ...mystic and synchronet both have a system for offline mail...
MS> In theory `ZMoDem' shouldn't have to be OS dependent...
TB> zmodem is not at all o/s dependent.

     Right.  As i wrote, in theory it shouldn't have to be OS dependent.

TB> There are zmodem programs for any number of o/ses that i can think
TB> of offhand.

     I suggest you ask Nancy Backus why `TCPort01' was created, exactly!

                                  %-o

     Either you don't think hard enough or your hands are all thumbs?...

MS> I've made contact with no `Mystic' SysOp just yet...
TB> ...no external protocols are available except for in the beta...
TB> ...which leaves me pretty upset with my choice in bbs software.

     And i thought that file transfer was a most basic feature in BBSes!

                                  %-b,

     Apparently, there's no hurry before i begin to promote `Kermit' for
a `Mystic' BBS system, euh...  This explains that, which tells me why it
happens that `COM/IP' has finally been discontinued (on October 14)!  :(

MS> ...i already tried to contribute...  ...the author terminated our
MS> experience the same day i submitted my 1st draft...
TB> ...i don't think you're lying, but i also don't think that digital
TB> man would be so closed minded about this situation.

     In describe a reality i observe, wars come later, preferably...  It
would make it worst to write that "closed minded" actually describes Rob
Swindell's attitude accurately but, euh...  what can you say of children
who won't eat something they never even tasted?...  Right now `WWKfW-16/
32' hangs the session and then the BBSer must wait for a day because all
his time was used while the hanged node remained idle!  %-o  I suggested
he forgets name calling for a minute and should re-align his focuss:  it
seems the INTERFACING with `MS-Kermit' (as external driver) IS LOOSE and
no Error-Trapping is even done to prevent False Message-Pointer UpDates!

                                     Salutations,

                                     Michel Samson
