nope... FD has never allowed external protocol drivers because the
protocols used by FTN mailers are tweaked in certain ways to handle certain
specifics of FTN mailer transfer methods... ZedZap being a perfect
example... zmodem doesn't have variable sized "blocks" over 1024
bytes whereas ZedZap does...

 PK> Maybe versipon 3.0 will offer external protocols along with binkp

versipon? version? i think "version" now that i read it a few
more times... at first i thought it was some new program or tool :lol:

as for FD3, i don't know... kinda doubtful but until it comes out of
development, whenever that is, IF ever, we'll never know ;)
