subject: Frontdoor Mailer over Telnet

ML>> all other terminals, telix, procomm, qmodem, hyperterm,
ML>> etc... would show it anyway...

 DC> Is telix still around?

sure... the old DOS 3.21 (IIRC) version still works fantastic just as it ever did...

 DC> And if so, how would one use it over a telnet connection?
 DC> Some driver I can load to emulate a comport over tcp/ip?

yup... on OS/2, we use ray gwinn's SIO package with its vmodem virtual
modem emulator... on win boxes, netfos might be able to be used but its not
a modem emulator so no init strings... com/ip or one of the other win based
modem emulators should also work... and, if i understand things correctly,
one can even point win-based terminals as virtual com ports but most of the
ones i'm aware of already have telnet built in... that includes the win
versions of telix and qmodem ;)

 DC> I'd really enjoy being able to use telix again.

have at it! ;)
