No, security violation.

I doubt qwk2pkt looks at anything like that, I don't recall any
file-attach bits in the QWK specs (it only reads messages.dat
remember).
FM> But if OLX (& maybe other QWK processors) allows ATTACH, shouldn't

With modification, perhaps. That's too much work though.

He hasn't connected for a while, I don't know if that is because
of the Viper or not. BFN. Paul.
