PE> The .cfg file has an example which I thought was
PE> self-explanatory.

BL> ROFL! You explain the problem so well...

BL> What do the lines starting with ";" mean? That usually means they
BL> are commented out. 

That is correct.

BL> And what is a "boss"? I thought you were the boss,

That is correct.

BL> but it seems to mean me.

Don't know where you got that idea from.  "Address" is you,
"Boss" is me.  BTW, the keywords are basically the same as used
by Binkley.

PE> RSEND is a front-end mailer. It does the equivalent of your

PE> it expects more than just .REQ to be sent, it expects you to
PE> send the *.MO0 file, or create a suitable directory and send
PE> *.*. In turn, you receive all your mail into the current
PE> directory. 

BL> Does your zmodem have recovery?

I presume you mean that when you cancel your whole session halfway through
a file, when you transfer it again, it will start from halfway.  No.  It
starts from the beginning.  Doesn't make any difference on your 90 second
calls.  It does recover from errors in transmission, but you aren't likely
to see any of those either, with EC modems.  BFN.  Paul.
