Hello mark!

If I remember correctly, this was why Mike Ratledge made his XRS offline mail 
reader submit replies in FidoNet compatible .PKTs, to be tossed by the 
system's regular echomail processor.  I used XRS up until RemoteAccess 2.00 
came out, when I converted virtually all of my message areas to JAM.  The 
QMX/RAX door was never updated to support anything other than the classic 
QuickBBS (Hudson) Message Base.
