PE>> You have successfully used your mobile to collect mail before,

BV> One minor problem. I've already packed the PCMCIA card which has the

PE> Any more hurdles you want to put up?!  Ok, next set of solutions:

Yeah, the bloody "fixed mobile" that Telstra have delivered is a
piece of shit. It has a standard line interface for a fax machine
and it was a bugger to get the modem to work with it at all.

PE> 1. You dash around a lot to other people's workplaces, so take your
PE> laptop to those places (assuming you have a laptop) and plug in there.

I'm not that keen on doing that for a few reasons. My PCMCIA modem is an
older 14k4 model amd wasn't very good either (the price was right tho).
I should be getting a newer 33k6 model sometime next week and as I
have Win-95 on my notebook, I don't want to load the driver crap for
the old one 'coz you can never find it to remove it.  IOW, E-mail
just ain't worth that much to me (in terms of aggravation later).

PE> 2. When you get to your new place, unpack your boxes (are you at your
PE> new place yet - unpack your boxes!).

I've got a few unpacked, but I can't go crazy yet because the blokes
who are building my desks in the office haven't finished yet. As
such, I've only unpacked what is absolutely necessary.

PE> 4. Whilst relaxed, try some computer-telepathy.
PE> Think d:\bbs\binkley\outbound\02c703a6.pnt\0000fff9.*.
PE> Currently there is a .mo0 which is 0-bytes long and a .mo1 which
PE> is 4111 bytes long.  Think unzip, think 483d9f06.pkt.  Now, remember
PE> that messages start with 0x02, 0x00, and then scan through the headers.
PE> What can you see?

A lot of corruption. Oh well, probably wasn't important anyway. I
got most of it, but there was definitely some rubbish there too,
unless the folks in Oz_Cripples are trying to blow-up my Netmail
area.

PE> That's right, a whole lot of messages from Frank Malcolm.

There were a few but none of them were addressed to me.
