Hello Michel,

A thousand pardons for not getting your name right, also, I've never done a
whole lot of posting on fidonet or echomail as many have over the years, so
if I miss things that should have been obvious or unknowlingly breach some
sort of 'echo etiquette' that I am unaware of, I ask a little tolerance and
leeway from those more experienced than I, it seems that frequently in the
past I'll post a comment and the next thing I know I've got people jumping
all over me for saying the wrong thing in the wrong post at the wrong time
or something or another, some of it even seems a bit snippy and mean
spirited at times, and I don't see how that benefits anybody, after all, if
there is something that I, or someone else doesn't know, should we be
afraid to ask a question?

At any rate, YES, trying to figure out a way to dial up my ISP using a DOS
ppp connection and telnetting into a BBS and being able to go to the files
area and download using zmodem is something I've been intrigued about for a
long time. I really have to struggle sometimes to get DOS ppp connections
up and running, but I can generally follow the logic of what has to be done
and make it work.

I've made a note of your website, and as soon as I finish this posting I'll
take a look at what you've got. I'm actually using BANANACOM right now,
dialed into the last remaining BBS here in the Houston area.

regards,
Matt
