there is/was a tool that could split/unsplit long messages in PKTs before the
tosser handled them... i do not know its status, any more...

FWIW: i would only use it manually on your long message containing packets to
split those messages into a new pkt which your squish should then be able to
consume... i would do this only on those specific packets so that it affects
only your system and not others connected to you... then place the new packet
where your squish can get to it and you should now get your previously long
netmail as multiple messages identified with the ^ASPLIT protocol from the old
FSC-0047.001 proposal http://ftsc.org/docs/fsc-0047.001 ...
