I lost your email to       contact you directly. I just like to email you about getting my BBS connected       with the internet. I'm getting a static ip address phone line installed soon.       So please email me. So        we can discuss on how to get my dial-up modem to where it can connect and       detect human callers (telnet) from data type of calls. You can email me at       jeffs4947 at gmail.com              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
