Read what I said.  "You don't actually know, since you've never tried
Binkley 2.60".  You said above "it doesn't behave like Binkley 2.60".
I don't believe you.  I bet I am right, and you will have the same
problem with Binkley 2.60.

BG> 4.0, which I thought was your recompile of Binkley 2.60.  If not, what is 
BG> it?

It is.  And I bet it behaves identically.  If you try out 2.60, and
it does the same thing, can you ask the question in BINKLEY, as a
problem with 2.60, so that you might get the proper answer.

BG> Dunno, I'd be more inclined to go back to 2.59 with EMSI connects if I 
BG> can't figure out how to get ModemTrans to work properly.

PE> That should be fine, although you miss the Afterconnect then.

BG> I don't normally use that function anyway.  I do use Aftercall though.

What a shame that YOU asked me to WRITE that then.

PE> Just disable busy-detect for all calls in the meantime anyway,
PE> why do you care?  Binkley will redial anyway.  BFN.  Paul.

BG> But only after the modem times out, say 60 seconds.  I want it to recognise 

Sounds like the end of the world to me.

BG> BUSY and redial immediately, just like a decent modem should.  Only hppens 

A decent modem would detect BUSY.

BG> when dialling STD via your exchange too.  Other STD calls work just fine.

A decent mdoem would detect BUSY.  Anyhow, I thought you were switching
to Optus?  Optus doesn't have pips.  BTW, you were very lucky relying
on the V32b.  I sent in a message to my NC to get V34 added, which he
seems to have done without disabling V32b.  Very lucky indeed.
BFN.  Paul.
