I took the bbs down this month, and the modem's CID runs a lot better with 
just 2 or 3 calls a day instead of 25-35 user calls and 100-150 mail calls 
each day I used to get.  The modem would pick up after the first ring to grab 
the cid info but instead of hanging up right away like usual, it would stay 
off-hook for maybe two, three full seconds.  No CID data would come through 
to the mailer and the call would be lost 80% of the time.  This got really 
bad last December, so I sent it into Supra for repair.  The modem came back 
showing the same disorder.
It's too bad the modem retrieves the info in this way.  I have caller-id 
units all over the house and none of them jump all over the phoneline in such 
a manner as the Supra.
