Hi there, Jason!

Jason Fesler was discussing 'Re: Beta Sites Sought....' with Chris Stone on

I agree also regarding QWK, but I have 3 downlinks that are getting newsgroups
from me now via QWK packets, so I need to be able to support them (although
I'd *never* use QWK to transfer mail myself). It's easy to add support wise,
so it's not a real hassle to have the code there to support QWK.

Regards,

Chris Stone
