YEp, there are those using the distinctive ring thing quite
successfully.  I"m working on something which spins off
Mike's comments here, but I"d like to see you go forward
with some more groundwork first in fg.  THat's not for this
echo I guess <g.>

bringing it back around, wehther the back end behind
something web accessed or pots, Maximus has some good
facilities for message handling geared for tech support or
other support services which could also be quite useful in
such capacities, even with the occasional pots access.
The "ownership" and other audit trail capabilities of
Maximus messaging systems make it quite usable pretty much
out of the box in such an application.


Regards,
           Richard
