Nick...

NB>If you care to have successful connections from unlisted nodes, maybe lookin
NB>at another mailer would be an option for you?

  I am considering Argus. Marc Lewis came into the system remotely, and
noted I may have a CORRUPT EXE with IREX for Windows. You could NEVER
get the system to save the entry "accept connects from unlisted
systems". While you could do it in the same session...when you exited
REXCFGW, and reloaded it, the paramenter was back to "NO".

NB>Binkd is a great mailer, otherwise I hear FMail for Windows is pretty good t
NB>and has more of a GUI configuration than binkd does, I believe.

  One of my connects for QWK Networking gets the stuff transferred via
FTP through IREX...the rest of them are via BinkP. If I could get it to
where folks could connect to me, instead of my manually polling 4 times
a day, that'd be great. I don't think Comcast is blocking the comport.

NB>Which, IMO, is bullshit. You shouldn't make people pay for a product you're 
NB>going to support. Continued support is part of the reason you pay for a
NB>product. If you're not going to support it anymore, open source it, or sell 
NB>to someone who will continue to support it. That's just how I feel about it,
NB>anyways.

  Agreed. I was lucky enough to be able to register it, but I think it
was through one of the U.S. registration sites.
