Ahhhh, that would explain why the connect times with my mail hub node have
varied from as little as 4 secs to as much as 41 secs (with no mail to pick
up) as I have fooled around with those items.

As for the MyMaxBaud rate and the nodelist, this doesn't seem to mean
anything then since all connects are faster???
