Jussi, Jussi; when will you ever learn?  It's not a bug, it's a feature! 

Actually, in this case, that is the truth.  MS made a design decision when 
implementing certain things in certain situations; in this case, we amatuer 
BBS operators were caught between the cracks.
I've been told that the way to go is to use the TAPI.  I can't comment on 
that, not having done any 95/NT programming yet, but I do notice that 
(apparently) the Wildcat! crowd has seemed to solved many of these problems, 
including fitting a native-code, 32-bit front end with a native-code, 32-bit 
BBS package.  IIRC they can even run Dos doors, but I might be wrong on that 
count...
