PE>> could you make TinyPoint compress the mail packet that it sends?

Yes, don't bother stuffing around trying to figure out the day of
the week.  The old standard (ie even for BBS's) used to be to just
call everything *.MO0, so don't be afraid of calling every day a
Monday.
 
 RS> What happens if someone happens to send two on one day ?

They get processed immediately anyway.  The same way that every
single TinyPoint user sends every single one of their packets as
00000000.PKT at the moment.

BFN.  Paul.
