if the transfer started with .th1, that would imply that .th0 existed at

that time, or am i supposed to have refused that too?

definitely not, the mailer.bat has the line "del 0000fffa.*" in it

as you know who would say, means nothing, if your bink had a brain fart

and decided, on it's own that i had refused the packet, then it would

have put it in the log wouldn't it? the only real way to check this sort

of thing is with a line monitor.



btw, were we short of mail today, there seems to have been a few new

messages and a lot of old dupes.
