Hi, Mark-

Standard port.  From what it looks like from running overnight, things look
¨like they're working as far as the system answering the phone. :)

ml> that depends on your "shim"... in my case, with Warp 3
Connect, i use

ml> dialing string... ie: dots instead of dashes and similar...

The dialing string problem is what I'm concerned about.  Like you, I run
SIO ¨1.60d, so I know I can get out with no problems.

What I'm wondering is if BT might get confused when I want to send mail via
¨POTS and what not.  When I get the POTS set up going, if there's problems,
I'll ¨probably pull BT off the telnet node.

Later,
Sean
