    I double and triple checked and I am sure the Com port and IRQ entries are
correct in both Renegade and InterMail.  Here is what setup looks like in 
Applications/Modem/Commands.  InterMail wrote these strings when I selected 
"USRobotics Courier DS V.Everything 28.8K."  Any recommendations?:

    I guess I am a bit slow … can’t find anything that says
"RING."  Are you 
suggesting "RING" should be somewhere in the Init strings?
