Did you get the number though?  Telix will be reading the "CONNECT"
itself, so that it knows you have connected.  It will only read the
number, if you have auto-baud-rate-detect on.  I THINK.  Were you
using Telix when you connected to other BBS's manually in the
past?

No, it won't affect your mail runs.  The first time you ever
dialled my BBS, maybe 2 years ago, what did you use as your
password?  THAT is what your password will be.  I don't delete
accounts.  The BBS is completely separate from the point system.

Jesus Christ, Frank.  I thought I was bad at hardware and
generalization.  BFN.  Paul.
