BG> A few of us in AUST_MODEM have been discussing the possibility of adding to 
BG> Binkley, a command which drops the modems into command mode, issues a 
BG> string, logs the results, then returns online, all during an unattended 
BG> call.

BG> Example (in sequence)...

BG> command:   +++
BG> response:  OK
BG> command:   AT%L%Q (or ATY11 if a USR)
BG> response:  Display of line conditions (logged to binkley.log)
BG> command:   ATO1
BG> response:  CONNECT 28800/ARQ/V34/LAPM/V42BIS (or whatever)

BG> The exact point at which this command is to be issued is debatable, 
BG> although just after the initial connect might be the easiest to implement. 

BG> Is this possible?

It's certainly possible.  And I may even be willing to do it if it
were simplified to...

AfterConnect "+++~~~~AT%L%Q^M~~~~~ATO1" 20

But would people actually want to change mailer just for that?
There's no EMSI with BTPE.  Probably better to wait for Binkley
2.60, which is due out any time between 2 years ago and last
month.  BFN.  Paul.
