NO, you SHOULD NOT be flying that flag, not unless your mailer does not 
support file requests during a WaZOO mail session AT ALL.

That is all the X? flag is for, is to indicate that your system is capable of 
handling file requests, and to what extent...
Please talk with your Fido NC before you ask him/her to change your flags.
