  I'm ready to try it too.

  I read the manual and FX-UUCICO does telephone dialling. At present,
using FX-uucico I can call you up with this: 

fx.rSystem: scorpio Any g "" ATZ OK  ATD9436-1785 CONNECT \m\c in:--in:
Ubobl: password

  I am using BobL as my "machine name in the uucp world" (whatever
that means), and it dials TML okay, but I'm not sure what you require
as the login script. I used what they had in FXUUCICO "\m\c in:--in"
but God knows what it means. "Ubobl" is my login name (what you called
me), and the password is what I use for Fido (all lower case).

  The 'g' in the string is the protocol, of which FXuucico has many
including the original f, plus y, g, G and v. Which are you using?

... later

  Well, I called in at 8:00PM on Saturday and spent $2.50 trying to
connect before I gave up. You don't seem to like my password. I tried
the 'f' protocol and it made no difference and i tried everything I
could think of, but it stalled at...

  scorpio! Login: Ubobl:
  password:  ... and this is where it stalled

  Any ideas?

Regards,
Bob
