I'm talking about outgoing mail.  If I change from ARC to ZIP, then
zip will try to add new packets to the end of the old, and complain
that it's not a zip file.

PE> They don't have an alternative point address to use. 

BG> But neither do I any more.  Seems I'm now 640/305.9 everywhere.

That's the alternative to a 3:711/934.* address.  BFN.  Paul.
