Well you see qwk2pkt used to produce Type 2.2 format packets,
which is what Brenton originally snipped.  However, Type 2+
packets are more stable (ie squish 1.01 was causing me a lot
of grief with Type 2.2), so I fixed qwk2pkt to make it
product Type 2+.  However, if you use that old poll packet,
then that is going back to Type 2.2, which just makes it
look unclean, although I don't think it is any problem now
that I am running Squish 1.11.  Which is another point, I
wouldn't have thought you would be doing a PKTJOIN on the
empty poll packet combined with normal packets created by
QWK2PKT.  

BTW, I did complain about it a long time ago, but it was
originally something for ME to fix, which I did...

1.30 switched from 5d address to 4d address for packet
     You can get 5d back by defining ADDRESS5
     Also attempted to add netmail-handling capability.  An area
     called "NETMAIL" with the first line saying "To: "
should read
     the address as the destination, just like Maximus.

which was released a long time ago (before 1994-02-17 anyway).

 DM> I'll also have a look at the blank header as well.

I'm not sure what you're calling a blank header.  Perhaps
that's the street name for "poll packet"?  BFN.  Paul.

P.S. to Keith - looking back in the old PUBLIC_DOMAIN messages,
you were the first person to complain about PVERT not working.
What were you using it for?

P.P.S. to Rod - so is Christmas a good time to do your own
testing on PQWK so that you can be happy that it is operating
properly and then switch to it?
