Grab v1.20 if you don't have it, the DOS executables for version 1.0x are 
sort of messed :)

AFAIK, multi-page format (*most* of Canada) uses NMBR to represent PRIVATE 
and OUT-OF-AREA calls, and MESG is used to display the actual phone number 
(in hex).  NMBR and MESG will NOT show up at the same time (I don't think).

I just tested your log, this is what I got:
 #Reading configfile "Sentry.CFG"
 #Reading mailer logfile "d:\watcom\Bink.LOG"
  CID data found 6 lines from end, out of 38 lines read
        Date: 1017 (17 OCT) CID=9-17 LOG=9-17
        Time: 2059 (20:57:43) CID=20:59 LOG=20:57:43

 :Scanned phone number is 613-782-9999

Looks good.

1.01!!  That's your problem :)  Grab the latest version from

My inability to handle memory in DOS :)  Sorry for any confusion.
