Yes, this was on the INbound.  1.9? doesn't attempt to split outbound at
this time.

Yes, many of the processors out there can only deal with 300 lines, so
in many cases the text would get scrapped somewhere else anyway.  In
fact, many of them only support 100 lines, but more seem to be at 300...
It's all quite normal.  A future version of PPoint will split it, but
probably not 1.94 as it's almost out the door...
