 MF>> - 5D addresses MUST be used, otherwise, WinPoint transmits invalid
 MF>>   AKAs to the remote system and the result of that is that the remote

 MF> Correction .....

 MF> - WinPoint is incapable of transmitting valid 4D addresses to the
 MF>   remote system(s), which can cause problems with some(but not all)
 MF>   remote systems. It is therefore strongly advisable to use 5D
 MF>   addresses.
