True that.

In all honest, I agree with you there and see that.  I just wish OTHER software
developers that supposedly still support their software would do the same or
turn it over to someone who will.  

FWIW, I am working for another developer to actually come up with a replacement
for the only FTN software available for WINServer, and yes, it will include the
two kludges mentioned above somewhere along the line.  I just want to get it
working first before we put in the additional information.
