Greetings, Murray...

 Murray Lesser hastily said to John Thompson:


 ML>     I have had two correspondents (you may have noticed them) who
 ML> assured me that there was no such thing as an OS/2 dialer :-(.

Who obviously don't pay attention to what's in their various folders.. ;>

 ML>  I like
 ML> it, too.  I chose to not be put on WorldNet, and this morning (Oct 1) my
 ML> dialer (pointed at the same local ibm.net telephone number) connected to
 ML> what must be AT&T Business Net.

Is it safe to ASSume that you are using the "old, original" SLIP-only dialler?
  I tried to connect with the 1.69 version that I have and sometimes still use 
and, while the connection was made, I couldn't access "pop3.ca.us.ibm.net".  I 
immediately redialled with Injoy and was able to sign on there...

After I saw this message I tried the old one... and it updated my user object
as well...

Now when I use ver 1.69, I get connection to mail and a proper check for new
version and phone list, etc...

I guess newer isn't necessarily always better..
